Does this sound like a good explanation/person experience with correlation?

My personal experience with correlation does not necessarily mean causation is the time while serving in the U.S. Navy, I went to a Honda dealership to purchase a used car that I thought was within my budget.The salesman told me they were unable to finance me because of my salary.A few weeks later, I to a Renault dealership and I was approved for a new car that was $2000 more than the used car.I was able to satisfy the terms with no problem.In my opinion, the first dealership was flawed.Some dealerships used questionable practices to approve customers for cars they can't afford.Consumeraffairs.com reports, the Wall Street Journal claimed that some dealers falsified buyer's applications by inflating incomes to match the requirements to qualify for auto loan.I am not in favor of this behavior, but I do question the requirement that set-in place.
