Something like : "Sir let me explain something to you...... I am 25 years old and work for XXXXXXXXXXX. I am self suffcient, manage my money properly, and can easily afford this automobile. My beacon credit score is excellent. Now if you want to continue to insult me by assuming a 25 year old is incapable of having their act together, I CAN carry my business elsewhere, but I did want to by local and do my part to stimulate the economy in the community I live in...... your call, you wanna work with me here or do I need to go elsewhere?"

I hate it when people make sweeping generalizations about something, instead of looking at the case at hand. Everything about you from your post says you had your act together, it's a shame you were treated this way.
