I hope you guys never send your parents or significant others out to buy cars by themselves. It sounds like you are okay with shady business practices and place responsibility totally on the purchaser to be aware of all of these things.
That's like going in for a knee replacement and asking the doc about the brand of knee being used... it's components... success rate... etc. Nobody can be an informed purchaser on ALL things. Just because we KNOW that truck is not worth $10500, it shouldn't be expected that everyone should know. Or even a majority of people. I bet less than 20% of BMW enthusiasts even know what a manipulation dot is.
My problem with it is not necessarily the price, because you're right, he can ask what he wants. But my problem is the way it's being marketed. A "low-mileage" rebuilt truck is not what that thing is.

Oh yeah I bet depending on which salesman you ask about that dot on the instrument cluster, you might get an answer like "Oh thats the below freezing indicator light, etc." Crystalworks is right most would not recognize that the illuminated dot is a tamper dot.
