As for the trucks, look for run flats and no spare tires coming in the near future. I would guess that there will be other weight saving tactics that are less than enjoyable.

It's not a quote, it's a saying. Sayings tend to have a lot of variations, such as "You're not the sharpest tool in the shed" is the same as "Your daddy dosen't call you son because you're bright". Different sentence, same inference. And since car sales is not in the realm of pop-culture, stumbling upon derogatory insider sayings may be a little harder than a google search.
Instead do a google search of "Customers lie", and you'll get the idea of where any dirivitave of my saying would come from.
Bonus Round;
If you want to see a great movie about car sales, one that's fairly accurate too, watch "Suckers". It was absolutely hillarious to me, viewing it through the prizm of a car salesman at the time.
