Why yes, I am a Smart ASS
Today around 3 pm I called my dealer to see if the 06 was in (been being a good boy trying not to pester the man. Last Tues it was in the whse in Atl. I figured it HAD to be here today)
Sure nuff its here.
The dealer (owner) who I was conducting business with was not in. Had already left for the day. I got the only other salesman. He said he thought it was in. I asked if I could pick it up today? He responded he would call me back in 10 min. 10 min later he called said the guys had already started on it an it would be ready in 45 min. I went home showered, geared up, and grabed a bud to drive me down (45 miles one way) Got there about 5 pm. I went in to finish the paperwork my bud went to the service dept to look at the bike. He came back in and said they will not have it ready today. I told him its to late in April to try to fool me. Unfortunately he wasn't kidding. The lady (finance?)(not salesman) at the dealer told the serviceman OT was ok if the could get me the bike (6pm now) Service said they were going home and would do it A.M. She was appologetic and said she would make it right if she could and have them deliver the bike to me (I'm thinking no way if they are gonna ride it). I told her I was not upset about having to wait one more day, but that the bike was supposed to be ready 2 hrs and 15 min ago and service says they still have over an hr left to go on it. I'm up set about the 3hrs (hr down, hr back, hr there) of my day gone the 90 mile round trip in a dually that cost $30 in gas just to do it again on Wednesday. I could have waited another day (although Wed has severe storms predicted for the area, may wait till thurs). Who screwed me? The salesman? I don't think so I think it was service dept. From the 10 min lag in phone calls the salesman went to service got the vin for me and they appearantly told him the 45 min time. I say this because it was not a seat of the pants answer on the first call (Oh yea, your bikes in come n get it). I am bummed tonight. Hey RAD, & TWN give me a shot of your sarcasm to pick me up.
