Thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels that way

Basically, the dealer offered me $11,500 for my trade and I didn't agree. I came back today planning to sign the papers based on the $11,500 and he said "I can't do that price, sorry. Gas prices are too high for that SUV." Then, after bringing in comparable models that are for sale on the boards and on autotrader he states "Well, why are you here?". I lost it!
My dad has past relations with the owner and is going to see if he can work anything out on Monday. We've bought many cars through this said dealership. On the way out I asked "What's wrong with the Sales Manage"r to a salesman that has been at the dealership for 31 years. His response was "(shakes his head) He has got an attitude (looks down) I know you guys bought a lot of cars here, the owner will be in on Monday". So at least there is a small chance of hope left.
