That doesn't always hold true though. When I worked for Frank Weaver Pontiac in Waco in the 70's I had to deal with a lot of "it doesn't sit perfectly level" issues on new Pontiacs. His customers were some of the most spoiled by the dealership new car owners you would find anywhere and quite often the complaint was that the car didn't set perfectly level and they were talking a half inch off.
