knightfan26917 Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 * While it has been a few days since this experience & the resulting article (Rusting Away 2 Hours), it still aggravates me; the car is now headed for auction-junkyard & probably was from the moment it landed on the dealer lot. It COULD be repaired & still give years of reliable service! Sounds like Cash-For-Clunkers?! http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/08/05/rusting-away-2-hours/ What has been your most aggravating dealership experience? Regarding new, anyone else miss when vehicles had exterior differences each year to distinguish each model year!? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/07/29/friday-files-71/ For those who have named your vehicles, have you ever put the name ON them!? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/07/26/daily-dose-trivia-tue-71/ I prefer the chrome look, but blacked-out trim is growing on me! Which do you prefer? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/07/28/thursday-survey-71/ Cort www.oldcarsstronghearts.com pigValve.paceMaker.cowValve | 1979 Caprice Classic (needs new owner) "Why are we so blind to see that the ones we hurt are you & me" __ Coolio __ 'Gangsta's Paradise (Dangerous Minds)' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightfan26917 Posted August 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 * Quick follow-up to Rusting Away 2 Hours: Less than a day after I was told the dealership was going to wholesale-junkyard the 1998 Mercury Grand Marquis, this Craigslist ad popped up: http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/ctd/5727763987.html Did they really think I wouldn’t see it!?
