That show is like a trainwreck. You don't want to enjoy watching someone else's disaster. But it makes for very compelling television. The idiot customer says those magic words every carsalesman longs to hear: "What kind of monthy payment can you do for me?" And it's all downhill from there...
I saw the episode where the son drove up in a gold Altima with his elderly Mom in the back. The son and his buddy (brother?) are shopping for a car for a nice used car for the mother. The son volunteers that his mom has perfect credit - over 800 FICO. The mom stays in the car while these two clowns go out test driving new Dodge Durangos and full size Ram trucks. Later they are back to the used PT Cruiser they looked at on the way in for mom. The car is advertised at $12,222 on the windshield. The moron son says to the salesman, "Can you do a payment under $300?"
And I'm thinking, "$300/mo?!? That should be under $250/mo even if you did like $0 down for 60mo at a realtively high 8%. It would still be under $300 even if you did a 48mo loan..." 
"But The salesman is like, "Gee, I dunno. That's gonna tbe tough!" 
Then the salesman comes back and says, "Well the best we could do is $320 a month." And they take it!! 
I think the old lady would have gotten less ripped off had she just done the shopping and negotiating on her own...
