All salesmen are taught to treat every customer like a potential buyer, even though it turns out that most people that come in to the dealerships have no intention of buying.

Also, trying to sell a customer on payments should be borderline criminal. There are a lot of people out there that would choose a lower payment with a longer term (and higher total cost) than a higher payment and lower total cost and totally think they are getting a better deal because their payments are lower. Granted, you should take the highest monthly payment and shortest term possible within reason.
