This got me thinking, for those of you who go there for service, does this happen routinely?
Personally I've found it all over at the present time, seems used cars are in VERY high demand. I just recently was told the very same at an Ocala dealership (not owned by Jenkins), I just looked up from the book I was reading and put down the coffee they gave me, and said "No thank you, I love my car no way would I let it go", the sales person didn't continue, or try any kind of "pressure" tactics like "well, you know every year you wait your cars is loosing value", or anything like that. Said thanks, and even asked if he could get me a refill of hot coffee ! ! ! Guess I was just lucky to get a very nice and polite employee !
