Was sitting in a new F-250 in the showroom waiting for parts guy to look up
stuff for my 92 truck with blown head gasket.
Salesdick kid comes up and says "What do I need to do to let you drive this
home today?"
What's the best thing to say besides "f.ck off" if this happens again?

Just be nice and say, "Just looking. I'm waiting on parts from the parts
dept."
Why the attidude? Sales is the guys job.

You wouldn't dare go with "blow me" because he probably
carries kneepads.

You sure don't want to send a mixed message in a case like that! But
seriously, don't be ugly. It's just going to reveal that you were too
witless to think of anything to say.

I'd go with a minor variation:
Fill it up, hand me the keys and turn your head!

Good idea, let's not forget the paperwork to make it all legal like. ;o)

Sounds to me like you need to quit being a prick and respect the fact that
he's just doing his job. You could try politely saying something like "I'm
just picking up some parts right now, but when I do get ready to buy I'll be
happy to come see you. Do you have a card?" Just a thought.

"Give me the keys"? Doesn't mean that you intend to buy it.

If you don't want to be disturbed by salespeople when you are at the
dealership when buying parts for your worn out vehicles, you should probably
just say "I drive a '92 F250 and a '88 Bronco II." I'm sure he'll leave you
alone.

"Get me the keys and get the hell out of the way"?
Just tell him/her you're waiting for parts and leave it at that.
