I knew I would get a response like this. Hell, kids in school these days don't know how to write or sign their name. Cursive writing? Ha, a thing of the distant past.

All I hear from my clients is, "Can I sign this via Docusign?"

Eh... I sign everything with docusign because I don't own (or want to own) a printer. I'm gen X for reference.

If you pushed a pile of papers across the table at me tho, it would be weird as hell to ask to use docusign.

Obviously, I was agreeing & the fact that OP hasn't contacted his dealership yet is laughable. I make my students (college) do introductions on the first day of class, work in different groups in labs each week so they get to know all their fellow classmates. I also make them come talk to me during office hours instead of simply emailing me. It's clearly a struggle for many of them.

Don't get me wrong, I do a boatload of documents via Docusign however I also do a lot of work with lenders and documents that require notarization and recording so Docusign is not an option.

The philosophy of paperwork? What a truly weird tangent to have on a car forum.

I’ve spoken to him on several occasions - contrary to your suggestion. If you had read my initial post carefully, you’d know that Professor. The irony here is how easy it is for Mr. Face-to-Face to criticize someone on an anonymous Internet forum.

Regardless, if this salesman and this dealer want to play games, I know I can pick up my marbles and play elsewhere.
