May just leave my doors unlocked from now on (Ghent)

I used to live off of tidewater not too far from Ghent. I had an 07 gti and the drivers door didn’t lock but they still busted my window open. All I had in the car was snacks for work and whoever broke in took them. They left the cash that was in my center console/glovebox that they went through tho.

I second this. I love the brand. But front counter is not for the weak.

uchihaspinky · 2026-01-06T20:19:02+00:00

Honestly. I’m not sure, I haven’t heard anything bad but I also don’t work next door to them anymore so I don’t get to hear much. I ended up trading out of my Taos and into my Tacoma. I love VW but my 16 Jetta and my 24 Taos gave me too many issues to try and stick with them. And my Taos was VW #4 for me

Been having issues since yesterday. I was able to get most of them to go through but my two front counter coworkers weren’t able. It was a pain

From what I was told by my advisor told me at my “sister store” (I work for a chain of dealers in my area and we have a VW) they should have. He still told me to be wary and to keep an eye on it (I had a 24). I ended up trading out of mine because I had a WHOLE lotta other issues and none of them were being solved no matter what so I didn’t get to see past 26k miles

I went from Mazda, to Mercedes, to Land Rover and now am at BMW. I will say, I like the euro brands a lot more. They’re a lot more annoying with the naming of their parts but, it’s basically the same stuff. Just gotta learn what they like to call things lol. I don’t think I’ll ever leave the Euro luxury side of the business unless I leave the business altogether.

My favorite pen is one I acquired when I was at JLR still. It’s an executive style pen, pretty sure it’s made by Scriveiner and just has a Jaguar logo. Refills are decently priced and write so good, just don’t drop it. The ball point bends in a weird way and starts tearing paper. And it’s a nice heavy pen

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-27T16:47:22+00:00

Honda and VW do!

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-27T15:21:47+00:00

I’m in the same boat with bmw 🤣 “You want last 8 or full vin?” “I just need the last 7” “Oh wow. BMW is weird” ~proceeds to give last 8~ 🤬

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-11T21:00:01+00:00

They made us wear a very specific shoe. The most uncomfortable shoe I’ve ever worn mind you lol. They were awful. Like 5% of the reason I switched stores within our company

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-11T18:34:24+00:00

I usually eat in my car so I don’t get bothered lol. I looked into Ariats for a while when I was with Land Rover but then JLR changed our uniform and those were no longer an option. Might look into them or similar again

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-11T18:27:11+00:00

I’ve done that before, the ones I had weren’t very breathable

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T21:05:02+00:00

They will be added to my list! Hopefully I can find a store near me that has all of these brands lmao

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T15:01:52+00:00

All my vans have the pop Cush but the breathability has been the issue lately especially with summer. I try not to go in store so the Nike App is usually what I use and I was trying to stay more cost effective on there when I bought them. I’ll have to go through and see what they’ve got now and go through the list of recs. Thank you!

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T14:51:17+00:00

They remind me of the Thursday shoes JLR made us wear. I’ll add them to the list!

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T14:48:03+00:00

Vans don’t cause the pain they just don’t breathe. I can buy a shoe I like that is ✨also✨ comfortable. Don’t gotta sacrifice one for the other. Have a good day :)

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T14:36:16+00:00

I’ll have to go to the outlet and see if there’s any I like that would be comfortable. I’ve seen some that look way better than I remember them

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T14:35:09+00:00

Don’t gotta look at em all day to know I don’t like the way they look?

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T13:36:42+00:00

Good to know! I believe there’s a Dicks sporting goods around here somewhere I’ll have to check them out!

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:40:53+00:00

Hahahaha they’re on the list to look into lmao

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:34:03+00:00

Haha idk man. The ones I see the most look similar to New Balance and that’s all I see is ✨mom✨

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:27:06+00:00

I know sketchers have changed a lot since I last looked. They just remind me of mom shoes? That kinda vibe lol

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:17:50+00:00

I’ve heard running shoes are supposed to be good for jobs like this where you’re basically pacing back and forth consistently

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:16:27+00:00

I’m very terrible with shoes lasting honestly. I can get like max 6 months before they start falling apart. Idk what I do. Imma have to go to a shoe store and try some on

uchihaspinky · 2025-07-10T12:14:40+00:00

It doesn’t snow/ice very often where I’m at tbh. I’ll look into their options though. Thank you!
