I've never heard a completely good story containing the name Gene's. I sure don't have any. Get this... When I went to buy the Jeep, I knew exactly what I wanted. I saw one in the corner of the lot and went in to inquire. I stood there in the showroom for about 5 minutes without anyone acknowledging my presence. I went outside in the -40 January cold, got the ice scraper out of the Honda (which was idling with headlights on and aimed at the door) and went to work reading stickers until I found the exact one I wanted. I went back inside covered with frost, ice scraper in-hand, and got no attention for another 10 minutes. The first lady to say word 1 to me was Debbie the internet sales manager. She was just passing through on unrelated business and asked if I needed help. Guess who got the commisson on my sale. She even apologized for not being dressed formally enough to be working the floor as she borrowed another salesperson's desk.
