Anxiously awaiting Steve's arival...

and here i thought i was the only one :naughty:

This is the first thing that flashed thru my thoughts....

If how they treated your car makes you mad, then don't take it there again and give them a terrible review with Ford.

Take it to Grapevine. Every time my car goes in for service, it comes back just like I left it. And they will clean it for FREE anytime I want, but they have the courtesy to ASK me if I want it washed or not when I drop it off.

I can't say enough about how well I've been treated by them. I recommend them to all of you.

I'd armbar the whole dealership!

Thought that joke was old.... :boxing:

It's very old. I just made it before someone else did. lol

Should they go to jail for 30 days for making old jokes. :poker:

I Mykey my car for Valet and I will use the handheld at set the RPM limit at 2500 if going into the dealership if I have to leave it overnight. The Owner, GM, Service Manager, Sales Manger and most of the techs at my dealership are either family friends, which is why I get things so cheap, or good friends. I dont trust anyone to drive my car but a few buddies and Toby and Sean at TS. Im not to sure about Tims driving habbits. lol

I've considered the MyKey option before. But I don't want to limited myself to the settings of that key in case I lose my main key. I've thought about getting another to do just what you said, Slow6, but I honestly don't valet my cars much, at all. I think I do that with my truck ONCE in 8 years of owning it, 5 of which were here in DFW. Just not me. I'd rather park my car than someone else that's never driven it.

You can change the MyKey settings in just a few minutes. I used to use it as a "Sandbagging Race Key" I could limit different setting and detune the car with just a key instead of breaking out the tuner at the track. Roadcourse not drag. I also use this alot when I let other people drive the car. I dont Valet my car much either but its nice to know when I do it is limited. You can use it for the dealership too.

Update***

Still haven't heard anything from the service department about the part coming in.

Have a feeling it won't be until after Christmas or possibly even New Years.

I'm totally going to leave a voice activated recorder in my car when I take it in. Haven't even brought her in for her first oil change yet, but I know what kids will do if given the opportunity....

I myself used to work for a Firestone during college. I was low man on the totem pole and did all the tires, brakes and oil changes. But I did pride myself in perfect zeroed out balancing of all new and rotated tired I touched. New tires would include a quick trip around the block to ensure absolutely no vibration at higher speeds. I would sometimes speed, but never did I abuse a vehicle. I did get alot of loyal customers however.
