No kidding. The wife & I are in the market for a new family vehicle, and just got back from looking at the second car for sale that had not been cleaned inside, or had just been half-a**ed cleaned. Both vehicles we've looked at (Trailblazer and an Escape) were a year old and had less than 20,000 miles on them - a new car to me. But my '96 Jeep Cherokee with 216,000 miles on it had a cleaner interior than either of them!!!

Now, if these had been cut-rate independent dealers or private sellers, I could have cut them a little slack. (Maybe they don't have a detail shop, or it's still the vehicle they have to drive every day, etc.) But these were both at big, name brand, full-service dealerships. They could have at least vacuumed the carpet!
