All of my mentions, “Why don’t you just buy a Tesla?” You think I would be sitting in a GMC dealership if I could afford a Tesla?

Sales tactic to drive up the price?
-
I’ve got a cashiers check so it’s this or I walk
-
Which car?
-
A GMC SUV for my wife
-
OK, so nothing crazy fancy. You've got the leverage with cash in hand and the ability to walk away if need be.

Why are they checking your credit if you're paying cash. I'm guessing you're wondering the same thing :-)

Indeed. It’s frozen, so they’re not getting anything, but shouldn’t need to, and so far as I know I didn’t authorize it.

Walk out. Find another dealer. Or buy a used car and skip the dealer entirely.

It is used
-
Non-dealer used car. Craigslist for value.

Did you have to provide your SSN? I resisted it when I bought my last car but they would not agree. I wrote a personal check to pay for it.

The auto lending industry is significantly more notorious than other types of loans because most people transact through a dealer and they can make up whatever process they want. Generally, it's 5-10 simultaneous hard credit pulls. Lucky to get away with 2.
