slander probably, and I think I mis-spoke, I went back and looked and Will said they threatened him with one.. my error.

1.A Positive outcome is in the works. They've agreed to buy the car back.

2.I'm going to be at Best Chevrolet in Easley South Carolina today 10-10-2012 at 11 o'clock am. Thank you ALL for your SUPPORT! The outcry on behalf of consumers across the Nation was overwhelming to say the least. I love Chevrolet cars and trucks. I did not want to change brands.

3.I'll be driving down 85S from Greenville if you see me on the highway honk your horn and flip me off (or not) :-) lol . I'll be the plain white guy, In a plain white Camaro with a plain 'ol good dog.

Haven't seen the youtube comments from today, great news if they do work it out with him.

Congrats C5, justice is being served.

No doubt, I was just trying to lighten the mood, no malcontent meant.


I think what these guys did and how they talked/treated William is just beyond reprehensible and they have no business EVER touching another vehicle.

I think the forum members did an outstanding job standing up for what is right, and getting behind William and I wish him the best working it out..

Every time a repost gets merged with this thread, I get so confused at the order of the posts.

If folks would just flag them instead of posting "this is a repost" it wouldn't be so confusing..

Yeah, but Mike, "courtesy" and "internet" rarely make sense in the same sentence

They took it down this AM because too many people were getting on there and leaving nasty comments. Justified comments in my eyes!

3. customer recorded all this with a audio recording device in the door pocket of the car

4. customer approaches dealership with recording and is told to f- off, customer calls GM and is told not their problem between customer and dealership.

5. customer posts it on youtube and a couple of forums..

6. internet blows up and every car and starving for real news site picks up the story

7. dealership asks customer to pull the video down so they can talk out a deal

8. customer pulls it down for about 2 hours during which time the dealership slaps customer with some legal paperwork and a lawsuit

9. customer puts it back up, and it blows up further and GM gets semi-involved, more news sites pick it up and the dealership owner goes fishing..

10. every internet tough guy and keyboard lawyer posts their 2 cents and millions of people become official authorities on all laws related to an incident in which all they heard was about 5 minutes of edited video..




hows that?

THAT is awesome. Thanks.
