More info on that camera is key. I'd love to see what kinds of antics it catches, maybe even something along the lines of this:

Hence the term "stealership"

I hate taking my cars to the dealership and I will only take them if I really have too. I remember a few years back when I owned a Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd, I had to take it in to have a speaker replaced well I got my Jeep back with a huge ass dent on the roof because some idiot in the shop dropped one of the air drills that hangs from the ceiling on the roof of my Jeep. I still remember the jack ass working there trying to blame me for the damage.

how did his camera record for so long? wouldn't the battery have died or the memory filled up?
When I got mine back, it said 10 miles on the paper, and there were 60 (unexplained) miles on the odometer.

Someone needs to find out information about that camera. I seriously need one.

This 8mpg is because they leave the car running the whole time bc they are too lazy to turn it on/off, and just dont give a shit.

Yeah, if you can't trust a car dealer, who can you trust?

There's a reason the auto industry is in such bad shape. It's being run by a bunch of people who don't value education while yjey hold money and profit in higher regard than decency and integrity.

I'm not surprised by this video at all.
