Glad you got it taken care of,
Maybe i missed it in the 56 pages buy why couldnt the guy that took the car be charged for auto theft, Ive got a friend that ownes a bunch of differnt bands of dealer ships, and while no one has ever just "taken" a car, he has had employees total stuff on test drives, however i think he has always just had to eat it or turn it in on ins. |

Congrats John! I hope the new ride brings you and your family much joy.
And thanks to the GM folks here who worked behind the scenes to see that the right thing was done! Padre |

That and hall of fame. Its why I ignored both trolls and stayed out. The negativity against the Hoopers was wrong on many levels

This thread is a fascinating study on mob-sense and mob mentality. Now in the cool down period, people are outright attacking those they CONSIDERED to have a dissenting opinion. What I see is PQ and a few others pointing out that the story is one sided and trying to see things from a dealer's perspective. PQ and others admit this situation probably could have been handled better by the dealer, but at the same time, the dealer didn't deserve the outright harassment it was receiving, and now he's being condemned for it. Some of you need to pull your heads out of the mob's collective ass IMO.

The community is now going to turn against a member who's been here for 6 years, with thirty six THOUSAND posts, after hearing only one side of a situation? Only because he was trying to be level-headed and trying to be fair to both sides in assessing the problem and possible resolutions? |

I am glad they came up with a resolution on this. I know there is no way I could say this if it was my car, but this actually resolved pretty fast. Less than a month with two major holidays during the time. And this to resolve an issue for a car that is not your run of the mill 10 on every lot type of car.
Maybe the dealership could have been more sympathetic and used kid gloves when dealing with the public relations of the situation. I don't know since I wasn't involved, just an onlooker. The dealership does appear to be making it right, or at least as right as a situation like this can ever work out. I hope the Hoopers enjoy the new car as much as the first and the permagrin is back on their faces.

Good point and question. PQ spoke with a voice of reason and take a look at it from the other side point of view. I think it went a bit far when the tone changed to one of labeling the Hoopers as "gold diggers" my term not his. I've only posted 2x this thread, including this one and it will be my last.

Who's "turnin'"? "Turnin' implies that at one time I was on his side. Am I supposed to bow down to his 36,000 posts? Has his 36,000 posts earned him the title of Grand Arbiter? I am reminded that, just because someone says something a whole bunch of times (i.e. like in this thread) does not make you any more right than anyone else. He is entitled to his opinion and I am entitled to mine. He voiced his opinion ad nauseum and now I am voicing mine. Wherein lies the difference? faSSteddie |
