Evo's don't seem taken care of if they take that long to detail. I wonder how long it would take you to do my paint :roll:

Oakes 09-08-2009 03:34 PM

Well, this one is a Track Driven DD, and I've been taking my time with it because I get better results that way ;)

HickRocket1258 09-08-2009 03:40 PM

How many cars would you say you do in a week Nick, on average? 2?

Oakes 09-08-2009 03:42 PM

2-3 a week, sometimes 4. It's already been an STi, this Evo, another Evo gets dropped off Thursday, and a Jetta on Saturday

ASIAN JUL 09-08-2009 03:43 PM

I lost anyones number that I've gotten in the last year. So pretty much yeah I lost everyone from TST

HickRocket1258 09-08-2009 03:56 PM

That's good. I think I might start experimenting with some products on my mustang. Paint got all buggered up because I let it sit outside for so long and get all crapped up when it was down.

Oakes 09-08-2009 03:57 PM

do it, better to find out on your own car than someone elses haha. I've got a bunch of stuff to order....

You peoples are nuts. How come the Duck has been away from here for awhile?

Been pretty busy. Got laid off Friday so I've been applying for jobs and spending more time with friends and my boyfriend Brandon. Went to his house for the long weekend... got home last night... had a busy day today. It's weird not being on here all day, but I have to apply to places and run errands before the wedding on saturday!!

LOL oh Ken! you're such a dirty boy! :P

PS... yes, I know this is a bit late, but I've been busy all day today! :P

Oakes 09-08-2009 04:00 PM

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand break time is over. Only about 2 hours worth of work left on this Evo, then it's sealant time which takes about 2-3 hours to cure so TECHNICALLY I'll be done the car by 6 but it'll need until later tonight to get the last go over.

So Newegg tells me that they shipped my laptop cooler from CA, they also provided a tracking number. However, for my laptop, they just said its shipped from NJ. So I don't need a tracking number for an expensive piece of machinery?

jpalamar 09-08-2009 04:14 PM

Amazon ships for NY and NJ too. Can't see why it matters how close or far/ cheap or pricy the item was. You paid for a serivce(shipping) that has a tracking number, you should get a tracking number or a refund of shipping. Personally, if they treated me like that I would say I never got it just to spite them, then show them their emails saying they wouldn't provide you a tracking number.

I am sure it'll show up today or tomorrow, but still a bit weird.

Gotta love high quality customer service. That seems to be the way most companies are. I wish they would go back to good old just do the job right the first time. You wouldn't believe how many times I walked out of places that treated me bad.

When I went to get my GTO, places wouldn't let me test drive them, saying I couldn't afford it and crap. I was like dude, you don't know how much money I make, how long I may have been saving, or if I enharited a ton of money and wanna waste it on a car. After I spoke to the GM at the dealer, they still said no joy rides. I told them I was serious about buying one, but wasn't going to jsut buy it becuse of a few knows issues I wanted to check first. I waived my certified check for $25k in their face, gave them the finger, and bought my car somewhere else.

They did they same thing to Julie yesterday at the dealer when we looked at a GXP G8. They kept telling her she couldn't handle the car. She said **** you, I just sold a mid 12s GTO last month. I can out drive you and we left. I of course emailed back since they didn't have my info and went to see the best deal they would give and it wasn't **** anyway. Keep in mind we pullin in with my GTO all cleaned up and looking great to. Didn't even roll up in a rusty crap box.

crazyduckme 09-08-2009 04:22 PM

Mmmm could totally go for some chocolate right now :P

I ALMOST bought Season 5 of the Office. SO CLOSE. but... trying to save! Bah!
I need Pete's Dragon to come out... cause that's my next purchase!

In this economy they are taking every precaution possible, even if it means to be complete dicks. My brother bought a new car not to long ago, and he rolled up in his mint 90' 535i BMW. Car is completely rebuilt with a new paint job...basically everything. They thought it was a clunker. :bigeek:
