I still don't get why car dealerships are closed on Sunday...

Customers work M-F and they are closed when I get home...🤷

Who's buying cars M-F during the day while they're at work?

one I worked at briefly wasn't, most sales were on weekend (just had to process/finalize on weekday cause banks closed on weekends of course)

@wildbill83 That's a good point, and the insurance brokers as well...

There are a few things / reasons they aren't open on Sunday (but are open on Saturday). In some places it is illegal (different types of businesses are allowed to be open on different days and at different times). Many dealerships want customers to be able to wander through their lots (to see what it available) without sales staff so that someone who might not really have been looking for a car (need to buy one now) might see something and make a purchase they didn't really need
On the seventh day god fearing people rested.
Car dealers are open on Sundays up here in Canada. That is because our god is not lazy and doesn't get tired or call in <sick of creating sh_t>.
it's law in many US States and most dealerships are family owned and like a day of rest

Because the staff have to get paid sunday weekend rates? Diminished benefit to owner of the business

@zonavar68 Staff are paid on commission, no? What do the do on Mondays aside from watching paint dry? Just saying - it's they same thing every time, I'm not going to take off from work to do car shopping...and one day a week, doesn't cut it. Every other retail shop is open.

@fun4us2b retail opening on Sunday is like a cult. Nobody ever gets a day off anymore
fun4us2b · M
@zonavar68 Except car salespeople
Isn’t Saturday still available?
fun4us2b · M
@Mamapolo2016 Yes, but they make you wait around - so maybe you can go to 2 places in one day...

And on the 7th day we rest… 😇
Likely a left over from when all businesses used to be closed on Sunday.

@fun4us2b I loathe the entire experience.
fun4us2b · M
@uncalled4 And it's a shame because it's a large purchase which should be positive and fun...

Jesus never owned a car.
@hunkalove But in the second coming he might. Maybe he will come down and discover some dealers open on Sunday and smite the earth.

@JamesBugman Good thinkin'!

Maybe because that's when they worship the dark Lord?
fun4us2b · M
@StygianKohlrabi Maybe- but they can do that Monday - besides, most Car Salesman I've met worship the Greenback...
