The only credit I'll give him is that he seems to have listened and is no longer thinking that 800 whp in the Z will be easy.

I love it when someone trying to tell me something that's just wrong. I look at them and tell them that I'm an ASE Cert Master Tech with a degree in mechanical engineering. Service departments are the best. I put many a tail between someone's legs. I bait them on for a while and let them dig a hole that they can't get out of.

I enjoy having my wife get me on the phone while they are trying to feed her a bunch of ********. Then I hand them their *** on a platter.

The worst/best was one time at the Nissan dealership. Manager gave her a bunch of BS on what it would require to fix the hesitation/idling hiccup her Rogue would make. She called me and I was talking to him on speaker phone. He gave me the same story. I can’t remember all the **** he fed me, but it was obvious he was trying to score additional work because he had been dealing with a woman. I asked him to give the wife back the phone and while still on speaker I yelled, ‘Tell him to **** off and quit lying to try and get over on a woman.’ I finished with, ‘Walk out and we’ll trade the car in on a Lexus this weekend.’

She told me the looks from the other people in the waiting room were priceless.

Limped the Z over to the shop in 2nd gear this afternoon. Hopefully new clutch and CMAK install will happen in the next week or two

I am sick of wearing t-shirts with MT-related-slogans and not having an MT to drive
