Since you asked, there is one tip I always give to prospective buyers when visiting a new car dealership. It's OK to test drive a vehicle but walk (run) away from a dealership that displays "dealer" add-ons -- nitrogen in the tires, paint and/or interior protectant, door-edge guards, contracted service, etc. etc.
That dealership is scamming the public and IS NOT to be trusted!

Yes indeed I have been with USAA for years plus when I left the USAF after 20+ I went to work for them.
I have bought my cars through USAA for years. Zero hassle, no headaches, in and out . Period
