I sent it to my hubby - he's in IT. I'm sure he'll love watching people beat the crap out of their computers/monitors/printers/etc. Thanks for the laugh!

Mine Smooth1 - how poetic about the football flowers & the picnic in the end zone - kinda sounds all warm and cozy!

Hehehe! That's funny!

Headache :cries:

I always seem to have someone stop to help. Sometimes more than one. Go figure. Life is good!

Point

And another reason why I have AAA & a cell phone (and a hubby for the dirty work)!

Not at all! As a smart consumer, you did the right thing. She should not have had a problem with showing the documentation & I suspect knew that she was hiding something by getting upset by your request. No - just like all car dealers are not like this (Lexus / Ford / Honda...any kind). She was just having a bad day & you received the attitude. Lexus has their honest and plesant dealerships/sales people as well as a few that aren't so customer oriented. My guess would be that these sales tactics are coming down from the sales manager (good cop / bad cop). I think these dealerships need to realize that there is so much competition, they really need to work harder & better for your business. Repeat business is really important for dealers, as are customer referals. This dealership just received a negative word-of-mouth post on a Lexus forum...not good for business! I hope you enjoy your new Lexus!

Oooo - good idea! We can split up the months. That works for me. Sounds good Cooolll!!! Great idea! Sure. I think we're set to draft something up & we can start posting.

FAITH!

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year!

Damned rubber neckers!!

I heard the same from some of the mgt at my work about China. They said it was crazy!! I'm glad we at least have lanes in the US - whether or not people can stay in them is another story!

Guess

I think people do this more often than not. Why are they playing driving games??

Games <_<

$3.09!!! Grrrrrrr

That is my a.m. rush hour every day. My fav. is when TWO cars on a 2 lane road are driving next to each other at or below the speed limit.... that really tests my patience! It's amazing how many people have no clue about the fast lane/passing lane concept.

I didn't say no on the car parts - I just get to choose what comes back! I still say we trick you out with with tape on LED's. Heheheh! I can at least get caught up on my reading / homework! I started Japanese this week. I need to find an actual software program instead of winging it with books and websites. I'm learning words, but not how to construct a sentence. If they only spoke Spanish. I took it in High School & I work with a guy from Peru so I could practice with him. Actually everything I've read said it's not so hard to learn - it's just memorizing everything. I won't ever be able to read the characters, but I will hopefully be able to write it phonetically if needed and speak a little bit. Plus remembering all of the etiquette that goes along with speaking it - sooooo different from us! They have a work for no (Iie) but they don't like to say no - so you have to skirt around it. I know "no" but not enough words to go around no. Uhhhh - hard!!

Se la vie!

My boss is really proud or me. Not only has my company never sent a non-management person to Asia, they have never sent a female. So, I guess I breaking a lot of ground here. I will have my laptop with movies & music on it, plus school work. Luckily I registered for only one class this semester. I know the jet lag is going to be bad - I'm messed up after a week on the West coast. I'll be taking off a day from work after I get back. Jeezzzz - I'm going to be out of the office for a week and a half. I can bring you some "The Fast & The Furious" kind of car stuff (APC everything). Maybe some snazzy LED's to stick all over your sporty Lexus??
