I’m looking for a car. I’m not an expert, so I asked my friend, who is a mechanic, for help. I was prepared and ready for car sellers, who will (and they did) totally ignore me and only talk to the man. I didn’t mind it that much, because clearly my friend knows a lot about cars and I don’t, so well.
But when it comes to driving - oof. I’ve had my driver’s license for almost 10 years. No accidents. My partner says I’m a very good and confident driver.
While looking at one car, I asked the seller if we could do a test drive. He said of course, but - “I will drive first and then we switch”. Ehrmmm okayyyy that was weird, happened to me for the first time. Anyway, we hop in the car, he’s driving, small talk, blah blah blah. Then we switch seats and that’s when it got awkward. I fastened seatbelts and he immediately says “remember about the hand brake”.
UHMMM OKAY?
I step on the gas, drive slowly to get back on the road and Mr Car Seller decided to add another brilliant thought during this ride:
“Whew, so far so good, we’re on the road!”
Wow. I didn’t hesitate and asked “and?”. He got uncomfortable so I repeat “We’re on the road and?”. That man was even more uncomfortable and said “oh you know what it’s like with women sometimes, they’re afraid to drive”. Wow. Told him I’ve been driving for almost 10 years. Wanted to ask him at what point do you need a pnis to drive a car. What a dck.
I didn’t buy that car anyways, my friend told me this car was shit and the seller was shady.
