Parents leave baby with car dealer so they can test-drive a car

Trying to do everyday errands with a little one in tow is a struggle that many parents know all too well.

Whether it’s the logistical nightmare of managing a toddler while navigating the supermarket aisles or trying to calm a crying baby while waiting in line at the bank, sometimes we wish there was someone we could just palm them off to… 

Well, one couple managed to do exactly that, after arriving at a car dealership to test out a new car. 

They decided to leave their baby in the care of a car salesman while they took a car for a test drive. 

A car salesman filmed the moment his co-worker was handed a baby to look after while potential customers took out a car for a spin.

The footage, taken by another employee, is both hilarious and heartwarming at the same time. 

The customers left the salesman with their baby

Car salesman Randy Ross filmed the moment his co-worker was handed a baby to look after while potential customers took out a car for a spin. 

The man is seen strolling around the car dealership with the precious cargo, smiling and laughing as he realizes he’s being filmed.

While filming, car dealer Randy Ross can be heard laughing uncontrollably as he watches his co-worker do laps with the baby in between cars.

He clearly has no issue with the task he’s been given — talk about customer service!

Behind the camera, Randy is laughing uncontrollably as he watches his co-worker do laps with the baby in between cars. 

“Dealership never gets old,” he captioned the viral clip, which now has 1.4 million views. 

“Anything for that deal”

Commenters found the scene just as funny, with many saying that you ‘gotta do what you gotta do’ to seal the deal. 

“Anything for that deal,” one person joked. 

“Really working for that commission,” another pointed out. 

Someone else said, “That’s some insane collateral.”

“That’s what I was thinking!” replied someone else. “Definitely coming back for that right?!”

“It takes a village,” a different viewer claimed, while others theorized why the parents left their baby. 

“I understand that. Moving car seats is rough, especially for a 10-minute drive,” one woman said. 

“They probably want to test the vehicle without a baby to see how it feels when driving alone,” guessed another viewer. 

“I would literally never do this but each to their own”

“This is definitely their last child, definitely wouldn’t do this with their first,” someone else assumed. “Can’t take any chances with the Guinea pig child.”

“I would literally never do this but each to their own,” admitted another TikToker.

People flocked to the comments, with one person writing: “Anything for that deal.”

“This is crazy,” concluded one user. 

Another added, “Just no lol. I appreciate the salesman and how accommodating he is, but NEVER.”

Then one mom asked, “Wait, you can do that?”

Let’s hope car salesmen everywhere start brushing up on their babysitting skills!
