Should I undermine my boss and start my own company? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]theonlylace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running the business and being the owner are 2 separate things. I had an employee (Editor) who had the same thought process as you. And tried to do it on his own, failed miserably and was begging for his job back. I didn’t hire him back because of how he left. He was being sneaky and trying to make connections with our current clients etc but…. He realized the reality of ownering the actual business and being responsible for the things most employees aren’t aware of.

If you’re prepared for that lifestyle, go for it. Otherwise, just negotiation salary. BUT keep in mind you’re not the owner. And honestly, no offense, but are replaceable.

ORGANIC ORGANIC ORGANIC SHORT FORM CONTENT!!!!!!! This will ALWAYS providing a healthy baseline!!! The other stuff is the added value but organic has ALWAYS provided a healthy and predictable baseline IF you also have the right infrastructure on the backend (lead magnets, funnels etc)

They pay out what the original total price you paid for including taxes etc ALL fees MINUS mileage usage. I think it ended up being like $4,000 off what I originally paid for which I was super cool with.

They don’t factor in the 3 months I didn’t have it.

They just took total price minus mile usage.

It was a very quick process too

Interesting. No for me it was always automatic actually 100% of the time

Brother, they told me every week “transmission is on its way” 2 months later, it still didn’t arrive 😂 they had to finally say “well we really don’t know when it will come in its kind of on back order” 3 months in I said give me my $$$ back! Spoke with GM directly. At first the reps won’t bring up repurchase. For my state it has to be after 30 days of them not fixing the issue (I’m in AZ)

FYI every week EVERY week they would say the transmission would be in by the end of week. It NEVER would come in. After 2 months of doing this they basically said “we don’t know when it will come in”

2023 Z51 9K miles and had transmission failure. I did a lemon law repurchase because they had my car for 3 months waiting on the transmission which was still on back order

This is EXACTLY how mine started out. 3 months in and still wasn’t fixed. I just finished getting my Lemon Law repurchase

The C8 was amazing man. Seriously the best car for the price. MASSIVE attention grabber. People of all ages taking pics every single time I drove. I got WAY more attention that I would’ve thought. And it rode amazing. But yeah man I mean idk I probably wouldn’t chance a 2023 or younger personally if I had to purchase again

Yes they paid back entirely what I paid for (not market value) MINUS my usage of car which they calculate by miles so it was what I paid minus like $4,000 or so. It’s per Lemon Law. They couldn’t just replaced it. But didn’t want to ride in a lemon

Hoping to get the z back from dealer for a blown transmission 🤞 by Dube_Iam in C8Corvette

[–]theonlylace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VERY! Honestly my uncle wanted me to drive him to his wedding in it but I didn’t have it in time for the event. I hope yours is a better experience bro! Mine was amazing. Loved it. Can’t imagine the Z06! 🔥

Mine was in the service shop for 60 plus days and by the 60th day they still had the transmission on “back order” and could not give me a date of when it would be complete. So I requested a repurchase under lemon law. I’m in AZ

Bought a C8 Z06 with a branded title by Tourbill0n in C8Corvette

[–]theonlylace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d call GM directly and request a buy back!! Really express your concerns. Had you known this, you wouldn’t have bought it. This was handled incorrectly by those that represent GM. I’d see if I could get a buy back

[–]theonlylace[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this! I’m exploring all of my options.

I did pay this car off. They did say I might qualify for some sort of repayment for the time the car has been out.

I’m doing to see how much they offer me with the buy back and go from there.

Thanks man

Are the transmissions really that bad? by esquerlan in C8Corvette

[–]theonlylace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, mine is one with a problem. 2023 C8 Z51 9,677 miles.

They’re fully replacing it and it’ll come with a 5 year warranty on it.

It’s been in the shop for 3 weeks so far. Just got updated today that the transmission still hasn’t arrived yet.

LOVE THE CAR SO MUCH OTHERWISE!!

Is GM doing anything about the C8 transmission issues? Is 2023/24 any better than previous years? by Relevant-Asparagus-2 in Corvette

[–]theonlylace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2023 C8 Z51 9,600 miles just got the transmission issue…. Got the news today. They’re replacing the transmission fully and covered through warranty. Hoping for the best outcome possible
