Im gonna try and keep a long story short but it may be tough, bear with me. I bought my tibby in May of 07 and went to put some wheels on. The lugs wouldn't move so we got a breaker bar and attempted to get them off only to find that we snapped them. I called the dealership and explained that someone put them on backwards, liquifying the threads and seizing the nuts in place. I was told I was wrong and was charged 250 for new bolts on the passenger side.

So, today I decided to put my wheels on and tried to take off the lugs on the driver's side and guess what......SEIZED!! I'm sooooo pissed. There's no threads what-so-ever sticking out from the bolt. The threads were completely made into goo. I can't try and take them off because my car will be out of comission. These jerks charged me for this before and now they're gonna feel my wrath! I'm getting this crap fixed and they're reimbursing me. Someone calm me down!

Golf clubs on trees works wonders for the soul.

That's hilarious, I don't know if I could imagine something that ridiculous and then keep a straight face when telling someone about it.
