1. Potential buyers for my Avalanche (which I sold to get the Camaro) wanted a full inspection done. We showed up first thing in the morning after making an appt with Ziv, who told me it should only take an hour. Three hours later it was done, but they only did a partial inspection, which basically consisted of a walk-around and test drive, and they wanted $100 for it! Made the sale that much harder and made me burn some vacation hours for missing work. Took it to Oreilly for the full inspection.

2. Short version of a much longer story: Ziv had no idea there was a service bulletin out for a fizzing noise coming through the dash on early M6 cars. It took me three trips and me printing out the TSB to finally get it fixed, not to mention more time off work. On the second trip they told me the car was fixed, didn't use those seat covers and got black grease on my new orange leather, and it started fizzing at me as soon as I drove off the lot. I immediately called Ziv who told me it was not done and they had to order parts! This was after waiting all afternoon!

Needless to say I've not been back to see Ziv and did my best to convey this poor experience when they called me for a survey. Now Peter, on the other hand, I've had a couple good experiences with. This probably points to both a poorly run service dept (or at least inconsistently run) and a failure on GMs part to effectively manage and communicate with its dealers. I've been to Lund Cadillac many times in Phx and always been treated great (not for a Cadillac but for my wife's old Saab).

But if you have to go to Watson, Peters your best bet.
Peter it is from now on! Thanks for the info.

Great turnout tonight at Sir Vezas. Thank you everyone that came. Lots of new members, and 17+ nice looking Camaro's.

Anyone (not at the airshow) plan on stopping by Cars & Coffee in the morning? I'll be there around 8, then head for breakfast at 9.

I am not sure, you can fill that in before to give it to Bill.


See everyone there, bring some towels to dry your car when we get there.

Was going to wash my car today, was too windy and she doesn't look too bad, spray her down tomorrow and get those windows done...

Looks like tomorrow should be sunny at 70 degrees, Sunday is a good day!
