And sometimes it is to their peril to do so. My neighbor works construction, and it's rare to see him in something other than a t-shirt and faded jeans. He was looking to buy a new pickup a few years back, and went to a dealership with a couple of friends of his, your typical "preppy" couple, khakis, and such - they were all in their mid-40s, so not kids. The salesman just about knocked him over to get to his friends, even though he was the one ready to pay cash for a new truck. He ended up going elsewhere for it.
