Other than referring to it as the "local" dealer Jay never mentioned what is 
(or was) self proclaimed as the "World's largest auto mall."  Such a place 
resides about mid point between where Jay and I respectively live.  Thus, I 
assume this is the location where his interest was dismissed.  I'm not 
surprised.   Years ago I had a friend that went to the mall fully intended 
to purchase a Honda Odyssey. While he had the appearance of "Uncle Jed," he 
also had Jed's money - intending to pay cash for his purchase.  After 20 
minutes in the showroom, and being ignored by the sales staff, he left and 
took his money elsewhere.
