Im scared who the member was on this forum ... if they helped you or, not I'm just glad everything is "Sort-of" getting situated man... what asses.

k20z3 · 06-23-2009, 02:50 PM

I still can't believe they said those things to your wife man, that is plain out disrespectful, how do you compare a 40,000 car to a 1.00 cheeseburger vist or some ****.

You would think a business would be proud to be able to do something to help a member of the armed forces. They were even getting paid for it.

I was referring to 'MAS' i.e. Military Auto Source (
Military AutoSource - Authorized Distributors for Audi, VW, Mazda, Nissan, Infiniti, Polaris and Victory ). They do Land Rover, VW, Nissan, Audi, Mazda, Infiniti, Victory Motorcycles, and Polaris.

It's one of those 'you have to be deployed' when you place your order with them places. Not quite sure why that is, but I was, so it's cool.

Captain Brian,

I would certainly recommend you speak directly with the owner of the dealership. I also suggest that you do it in person in your uniform. I would bring up the fact that the military as a whole is very tight knit community and you will make it a point to inform your fellow servicemen and women that their dealership is not friendly to military personnel and you suggest they take their business elsewhere. Both my parents served 20+ and have never hesitated to use their influence to right a wrong. You deserve better, your wife deserves better. Congratulations on your new ride.

would okinawa fall under this?

i currently only do 7 month rotations and with the only places left for ch46 guys being oki and cali i might as well ask to go to okinawa

btw my old OIC was Capt Ziola do you know him? he was an f18 guy he was an MMCO before

Bogus. Another reason why I HATE car dealerships and thoroughly enjoy grinding them into nothing when I buy cars. I enjoy ruining their day.

Crash · 06-23-2009, 06:48 PM

It's all a big misunderstanding.

You see, before delivery of the car, the manager's puppy ran into a street where it was hit by 3 cars... After surviving those hits, it tried to pull itself out of the way with one puppy paw when it was run over by a garbage truck. The manager then sent his 8 year old kid into the street to go pick up the remains when his kid was hit by an on-coming car. No cars stopped for this as more cars ran his kid over.

So the manager was very unhappy that day and didn't know how to handle his emotions.

CrownR426 · 06-23-2009, 06:53 PM

It's about time to use your other toys and pay the dealership a visit.
Don't you think so?

Not trying to be disrespectful, but I say BS on this one.

weltall · 06-23-2009, 07:00 PM

i think its just a joke

Crash · 06-23-2009, 07:04 PM

Yeah. It was a joke. LOL

That manager's a freaking tard. I've only been to a couple dealerships that didn't treat me like a customer, but never that bad. AND NEVER did any of them tell me that I "wasn't a customer"! That's so in bad taste and wrong on so many levels, I would feel very violent towards them. Of course, the letter to Nissan was EXACTLY spot on.

When was that sent out? Any word?

weltall · 06-23-2009, 07:42 PM

i hate dealerships in general maybe because im in a military town and they tend to treat us like we are naive kids and use it to there advantage

Yeah, I am sure Oki is fair game. I have a good point of contact over there if you want, too.

Thanks for the compliment on the letter! It is nice to know I can still bring-it through well written words!

The letter was sent out about a week ago. No response from the dealership, though I am not sure there is any motivation to respond at this point. I do hope, however, that there was a serious talking-to from the head haunchos to this Sales Manager behind closed doors.
