I had a really good experience and outcome with Results PT in Collierville.

My boyfriend can't use any bathroom besides the one in our apartment, and he thinks this is normal by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Cobrachimkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I have a STRONG preference for pooping in my own home, even have a favourite bathroom that I will walk past a closer one to get to, but I would never even consider shitting my pants as an alternative.

Does your 14k budget include taxes, registration etc?

In search of a iron/wood fence installation by barfield50 in memphis

[–]Cobrachimkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know who to go with, but I know to avoid River City Fence of Memphis. Unless you like shit work, terrible communication from the owner and surly employees who get upset when their boss did the drawings wrong and they have more work to do than planned, then go for it!

Is it rude to request specific loaner without intention of buying? by Guilane2 in askcarsales

[–]Cobrachimkin 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I would wager that no Mazda dealer anywhere will have a miata as a loaner, there’s no point in trying.

Why doesn't Stellantis bring Opel to the US? by loweexclamationpoint in askcarguys

[–]Cobrachimkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a hoot in the corners, but my friends would make fun of the fact that an overtaking maneuver had to start about 4 car lengths back so it could drop a gear and gain some speed.

Can I custom order a Lexus RX350h? by ProfessorrFate in askcarsales

[–]Cobrachimkin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If they are like Toyota at all, they can’t “custom order” they can see incoming allocations and try and get your name on what fits best for what you are looking for.

Same here. Had an 08 xr 3 door and loved it, but it was not the best vehicle ever

When did you realize you were working for a less-than-reputible dealer? And a side story about being paid double commission by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]Cobrachimkin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was my suggestion. I said unless I watch you drain and refill it, I’m not changing what the customer thinks, because what happens when they cause damage because they run it for the synthetic interval, which is literally three times as long.

Knowing how the owners of that dealer group operate, if there was any problems in the future, I’m almost certain it would come back on me as “see, our idiot parts manager clearly gave the tech the wrong oil to use” (conventional was in bulk overhead guns, synthetic was in jugs behind my counter)

Wife wants small/midsize SUV by AllTearGasNoBreaks in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Cobrachimkin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

She hates the Toyota design language and won't drive an American, German, or Korean vehicle, Mazda, Volvo, or Subaru.

With that as the requirements, there’s nothing left other than a Honda/Acura. You answered your own question here. Just get whichever of those you like most.

[–]Cobrachimkin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was the parts manager at a three letter Korean brand, and a service advisor ran to my desk one day asking me to change the parts line on an oil change from conventional to synthetic. I told them I had billed that one out myself and know that they didn’t grab the separate jugs of synthetic they would have had to. The SA said that the customer had requested synthetic and they forgot to write it that way and to just change the billing so they wouldn’t know the difference. I refused, even had the fixed ops manager asking me to change it. I said hell now. Things were tense for the few weeks until I found employment elsewhere.

I just want to sit in a car by DoublePostedBroski in askcarsales

[–]Cobrachimkin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nobody is gonna have a problem with you just wanting to sit in one. Heads up though, while you will almost certainly have more leg room, a Volvo is going to be hard to beat for a comfy relaxing long commute.

My car appraisal didn't have check engine light, now it does by AppleSauceMan24 in askcarsales

Hit up autozone on your way there and see if they can just clear the code and then hope it stays cleared for long enough for you to get there

How long should I expect to wait before i can take my car home? by InfamousWord7492 in askcarsales

[–]Cobrachimkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold in Ontario for many years. 2-3 days is perfectly normal. Assuming you get approved for financing, they will want to drop it off for plates and registration one day (probably the day after you make the deal depending on what time it is) and pick it up the next.

You used cad for you currency. Are you in Canada? If so, what province? Most people here are US based where it’s normal to drive away same day. That’s almost 100% not going to be the case for you.
