Dealers and salespeople must do business by following the law and acting with: (Choose all that DO NOT apply.)

  1. a. Integrity

  2. b. Fairness

  3. c. Honesty

  4. d. Passion

The correct answer is: d. Passion

In the context of the automotive sales industry, dealers and salespeople are held to high ethical standards, which include integrity, fairness, and honesty. These principles ensure that they operate within the law while fostering trust and maintaining a good relationship with customers. Integrity involves doing the right thing even when no one is watching, which is crucial for maintaining credibility and reputation in the business. Fairness refers to treating all customers equitably, ensuring that no one is given an undue advantage or disadvantage in transactions. Honesty is about being truthful in all dealings, helping to establish transparency. While passion for the industry and the products being sold can be a positive personal trait, it does not directly relate to the legal and ethical obligations that dealers and salespeople must adhere to. Therefore, passion does not apply in the same context as the other choices. It speaks more to an individual's enthusiasm rather than the required business conduct that ensures legal compliance and ethical practice.
