I would have lots of questions and definitely use it to my advantage. That's real sketchy but also not too damn surprising.

I attempted to sell a vehicle several years ago to a dealer. Stopped in on a whim on the way home on a Friday to see what kind of quote I could get. Guy wouldn't go above list even with SEVERAL thousands of upgrades and custom additions. Fine! Told him I had to pick up my son at school and would be in Sat morning to close it out. Took off all of the additions except for the wheels and tires and showed up Sat morning and the guy started the BS about the extras that were removed. I told him we could go in and discuss privately. Requested his "manager" in and explained what happened personally. Sales guy looked like he was pissing himself. I walked out about 15 minutes later. Ended up selling privately about a month later for $1500 more and kept all of the extras and sold them later.

Dealerships can suck a dick! If you work at one, trust me, 95% of the population knows you are equivalent to a scam artist!

What were they?

I don’t work for a dealership but i see this a lot where people think their custom additions are worth dollar for dollar what they paid and 99/100 they are not.

I hardly doubt having the manager there caused him to piss himself. He was just doing what the manager taught him to do!

I assure you, the rough country lift kit didn't add value.
