Anyway, at a couple of car lots, the salesman would snub their noses at me like there was no way I could afford a new car. Little did they know that I had most of the money saved up for a new car. I eventually bought a new car at a car lot where the salesman treated me like a person, without making assumptions based on what I was wearing or what I was driving.
