Wow bro 😂. That motor bike guy sounded sketch from the very, get go. Lmao 😂😂😂
I was at my local dealer for an oil change in my GM plastic car, and there was this beautiful blue Colorado in the showroom. I walked over, and it had everything I would have wanted at a reasonable MSRP. Then I heard my wife in my head say, "Oh no you're not". Dang it, I really liked that truck. LOL
The guy with the bike reminds me of a story from many years ago. Long before the days where identity theft was common. A man walks into a GM dealership in Chicago and leases two vehicles. Unfortunately the person was not who he said he was but managed to drive away with two new vehicles. The vehicles were recovered and little over a year later when they were abandoned. Obviously the license plates could not be renewed. Both vehicles had significant damage. Nowadays that is probably a more common occurrence.
That biker guy could’ve been possibly scoping out the place to see if it’s easy to steal those vehicles after hours. If I were the manager, if your dealership can place extra security. I say do it. Hope everyone is safe there.
Chill out, not everyone stealing cars 👍🏼
Plus they would just put them in his credit😅
I don't know why people get a drop in liner when for 100$ you cam get a spray in liner. 😮 🎉🎉
Don’t worry every dealership parks “blocker” vehicles or gas metal gates to prevent vehicles from leaving the lot.
I think I heard you quote a price to the mystery biker this morning when I was in for service. Your voice is very recognizable.
The new Chevrolet Colorado’s are very impressive. Hope you keep selling them Dave, always awesome and entertaining content!
I have the Colorado's grandparent, a 2002 Chevy S10 long bed in red with the 4.3 V6 . First new vehicle I ever bought. Has been good to me.
Probably dodged a bullet with biker boy tho smh
That motorcycle guy sounds like a scammer. Or a thief. Payment with a personal check??? No cell phone?? did he leave his ID? Just left without a word?!! Dealerships get scammed too 😅!
BTW: you never tell us how much the cars are?
I had to pay for my last car with a personal check. The dealership didn’t want a bank check.
I've been a 6 time repeat customer of about 20 yrs I think to my local Chevrolet dealership. My long time sales guy just contacted me recently for the 2025 Equinox. I currently have the 22 Equinox RS and I like the full inside and out re-fresh look of the 2025 Equinox. So going in later this week to talk numbers and such. My longest with one vehicle was 5 yrs with a 2018 Equinox.
I guess some dealers out here in Oklahoma are a bit more casual. They accepted my personal check when I purchased a new vehicle.
Had a Toyota dealer here in California take my personal check for a Tundra.
I recently wrote a $52k on my wife’s new car. The Lexus dealer had no issue at all. This is in S. Cal.
Love the new Colorado!! I am looking at those along with the new Ranger.
Better do your homework. Ford is having issues right now. I know several people with the Colorado trucks and love them.
At the GM dealership where I'm back at work, (part time. I retired for a year, then got bored, and missed the lot life), we almost never saw Canyon/Colorados. Everyone wanted the big trucks. Now the Silverados/Sierras are piling up at our off-site lot, and we're getting more and more of the smaller trucks.
I am thinking the full size trucks got so pricey people are moving down. Even if you have a smaller trailer the Colorado can tow it.
The man on the motorbike by the sounds of it would do you all a favor and not come back lol.
It was a scam and I’m glad you didn’t get caught up in it.
Dealerships have been scamming “ customers “ for years, and I think the folks are getting tried of it.
Please do a test drive of the Chevy traverse with super cruise at night and in the rain and also in the fog as well to test the system at its limits and review the headlights as well
I rented a new 2024 Traverse LT a couple of weeks back while on vacation, I was pleasantly surprised how nice it was. Never owned a Chevy before but would certainly consider one.
That's a nice looking Colorado! I wonder why Chevy doesn't make a body on frame SUV version of it to complete with the Bronco, 4Runner, new Land Cruiser, and Jeep. Maybe call it the Montana or Boulder ( or bring back the Blazer name and rename the current blazer crossover). *Ford should also be selling an SUV version of the Maverick and Ranger
The Montana name is already being used by Chevrolet on their smaller pickup. It is not available in the US yet.
I just checked out the Montana pickup, it would definitely sell in the US & Canada if it was priced competitively with the maverick. Ford should bring the Everest here too, even if it sold at a premium to the explorer I think there is room for it. I had one as a rental last summer, really nice ride and looked so much better then the current explorer.
Great videos dude, keep it up.
Traded my 23 Colorado ZR2 for a 24 Silverado ZR2 with the Duramax. Love everything about the Colorado stance, power, tech, etc. Fuel mileage was the downside. With a roof top tent I was seeing 12-13 mpg. With the Silverado I average 21-22. And the extra room is very welcomed. GM is building some great vehicles.
Just traded my 2023 Colorado for a 2024 LT TrailBoss and I couldn’t be happier. Loved the Colorado, great little peppy truck. I’m a pretty tall guy and it just didn’t accommodate me well.
Congrats on the 7th repeat, Dave!
That guy on the motorcycle 🏍️ has to be scam he wants to write a check. This guy is fishy. you should report him report him all your dealerships.
Amazes me how often people trade cars. I never trade a car. I always maintain them and give them to a granddaughter (I have 5). The last one the oldest one got was an '07 Accord with 170,000 ,miles that ran as if it had mile 1. My truck bought new is an '05 Titan and runs and looks like new. My wife's car is a RAV4 XLE hybrid and BEST car ever made. Perfect. I guess I would not be good business for your dealership but loved the video. I think the new Toyota trucks have gotten so expensive people will switch to the Chevy. I would.
6:15: New Jersey is now the only state that prohibits customers from pumping their own gas. (The law was passed in 1949.)
GM did a great job with the new Colorado and Canyon. I think they will sell every single one that they can build and then some.
Agreed
Hey Dave, I love the videos I’ve been watching for a while now. When I started looking for a job I started watching and I now been with bmw for a while and love it! I was just wondering if you guys were also affected by the cdk global systems being down? Keep doing what you’re doing man!
@@justinwilliams3008 no affect with us
@@DaveBsellsChevy ahh lucky our systems were down for the last couple weeks just fully back up and running today
YO DAVID B YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN YOUR NEW TRUCK EV SILVERADO EV THAT IS WE HAVE THEN ON DEALER LOTS OUT SIDE OF PHILADELPHIA THIS WEEK I HAVVE SEEN THEM AT 3 DIFFERENT PLACES IN NJ😮😊
I have paid twice over the years for brand news cars with a personal check. No problem
Depending on what happens for me. I’m seriously thinking about getting a new Colorado. Ever since Chevrolet redesigned this truck it immediately grabbed my attention. Thank you so much for showing this.
I also enjoy your channel!
Thanks for watching 👍
Maybe I missed the video but.. could you do a video on the features on the 2024/2025 chevy trailblazer? My mom is looking into getting one. Thank you for the great content!
Could be he cloned the key fob to return after hours for a great deal.
Dave, what does that truck go for? I don't know much about Chevy's other than from you. Thanks and I enjoy your videos.
I still cant believe u dont pump ur own gas there😂
Love the new Colorado but last week I bought a new Malibu RS (traded my 21 Trax). i’ve never owned a four door sedan so thought I’d get the last sedan built in the US by Chevrolet. Like the car but now I have to figure out how to put a kayak on the roof lol
ya, that guy is a few frys short of a happy meal.. scammers never sleep.. great to see that you dave and your chevy dealership caught his dishonest antics. i hope oher dealers around the are a, have been warned about him.
Love the content, post daily please, show the trade in vehicles in every video too
lol that dude on the motorcycle ain’t ever coming back
Your dealership doesn't have its own gas station?? The one in Lakewood has its own gas station !?
I paid for my 2024 Corvette HTC with a personal check. The dealer just called the bank to verify funds.
What was with all the traffic out on that road. Construction? Accident? Do you know? Could just be lunch rush but that doesn’t look normal for it to be backed up all the way past your dealer
Some sort of temporary right lane closure up the road
How are you guys handling the CDK hack and having to do everything by pen and paper?
He was hoping y’all would accept a personal check
Love those trucks whats the price on them
Don't take biker boy lightly. It's a funny story until the funny story ends up on the news being a bad/scary situation.
I swear sometimes that front end of the Colorado looks like a tacoma i almost always make the mistakes.
Was Traverse named for Traverse City Michigan? I mean Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe, Yukon, Malibu, Colorado, etc are named for places
I live in Traverse City! And actually met Dave B when I was in NYC and decided to pay a visit (I'm actually in one of his videos). GM did film a commercial with the Traverse here in Traverse City (and just did one for the Corvette last month here).
Is this accident happened in front of your dealership: "Milania Giudice’s Mercedes Gets Totaled After Being Struck by Teacher’s Car"
Must be New Jersey
The Colorado is great..but Chevy/GM does not stand behind the product...my '23 Z 71 driver side leather seat has started cracking...only 12k on it and my dealership will not cover it..twisted their arm to send it in to GM for a review,,,2 weeks,,,have heard nothing so far.....I am in NJ...maybe should have purchased from Dave...
@Dave B Sells Chevy: Nice truck… but headlights accessible only thru the screen? Ouch. Does it have rear air vents?
Yes, headlights on screen but also have auto feature so really no need to use the buttons
I cannot get used to you cannot pump gas in NJ.
Wow that is crazy weird that poor man
Motorcycle guy sounds like identity theft and he got spooked
I hope you can let us know how the Equinox EV sells.....or doesn't, honestly without pro-GM bias.
I am surprised you put regular gas in it. Almost all turbo engines recommend premium for full performance.
Do you think that dealer cares? LOL
Check the specs of the 2.7L turbo 4. 87 octane is acceptable.
Down that guy is coming back seems very, very shady and weird the whole thing if they keep us updated and enjoy your day and rest of the week give your wife. You and your family.
Who just drives around the dealership parking lot for a test drive?
That reflection of stuff from the dash on the windshield (like at 5:38) yeah- no thanks.
Honest question - what kind of benefits does a (7) time repeat customer get over a random Joe - I'm 3 time repeat customer at my Local Chevrolet dealer and every purchase is a boxing match - my lease is ending 09/24 my current focus is, ease of transaction and the best deal - my loyalty does seem to be rewarded in any way - could be just my situation thou
That was weird...
Wish the Trailblazer had cool driver info gauge screens like the Colorado!
Dave B. What is your company position on rip off add ons to deals?
People weird man lol
Any idea of when you're getting your Silverado EV?
It's built... hoping to see it sometime this month
Dave B, what do you use to record with?
@@mariamarimpietri2865 Currently using a GoPro Hero 9
I would pull the CCTV cameras for the biker and let the police look at it. Could have a warrant on the guy.
Yeah, it’s called “scam artist.”
Hey Dave, do you know if the new 2025 Equinox has the Bose or any kind of upgraded stereo? I checked the chevy site and all it says that it just has a 6 speaker audio system.
I dont know for sure yet but safe to assume it probably will have Bose as an option
0:55 7th Vehicle? Are they doing lease?
@@rileypart1 no, everyone was cash deal
@@DaveBsellsChevy That customer must have more money than brains!! Talk about depreciation...
@@DaveBsellsChevyoh that make sense lol 😅
@@richardepstein3494he might not be trading each one in for the next one. I mean I’d guess the guy’s wife is still daily driving that Traverse
1st
I don't know, from the sounds of it that dude on the bike is setting something up. I don't usually like to be suspicious about people but my gut is telling me he's pretending to be a customer and that info he gave you isn't his. I'm not saying that you should do anything official but if anyone at your dealership or the other one he was at knows an detective then I'd casually ask their opinion. The man could be harmless and just an odd duck but be careful just in case.
I would like to have bought less cars. My 2001 Toyota MR2 I just bought a couple weeks is my 70th car, I'm 62. Yes, I have a problem.
It sounds like the guy that ghosted you was potentially using someone else's identity and was likely fraud.
Customer purchased two equinoxes, one cruise and one traverse. There's someone who doesn't know how to learn from experience
Leases
That's because he gets rid of them before they totally Fall Apart
@@clairegazzillo6775 certainly true; but he does get to ride the depreciation waterslide
Why are dealers against people paying cash? Why pay interest for 5 years when you can spit that and have title in hand.
personal check does not equal cash
Dealers make money when you finance.
When I bought my '24 Z71 Colorado, I was planning on paying cash. Dealer said that if I financed it with GM Financial they would give me a $1000 discount, and that I could pay it off whenever I wanted. OK by me, and I paid it off as soon as GM Financial contacted me. 💁♂
It wasnt that we didnt want cash.. just werent going to take a personal check.
Dealers get a commission from the bank for the loan. The dealer get’s it’s money either way. But if it’s financed, the bank adds a little extra.
What you have is a run away scammer
