rediculous!!!!!
so here my brief rant...
my magnum was parked on the road in front of my house a while back and gets back into by an idiot who wasnt paying attention..... anyway since its a company fleet car, I had to get approval from the fleet company for the repair, so i get the approval to take it in, and all they had to do was replace the bumper and bang out the rear quarter panel....fairly straight forward right? wrong the cars been there now going on 3 weeks, and ive been told could be another 2-3 weeks...?!?!?!?!?!?!?! apparently when they took the car apart to fix there was more damage under the body which now needs more approval from the fleet company so theyre now waiting for that again...so frustrated as im driving a rental which the seats are uncomfortable and i have no stereo like in my magnum....end rant so frustrating! ------------------ 1990 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo - new stereo comin this spring! 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000 Honda Odyssey |

dont sweat it man, thats really no ones fault. that body shop is at the mercy of the company and they can't really do anything about that. its understandable to be upset at the company for being slow on the approval though.

As bad as it may seem. It would have been much worse if you had to pay for it yourself AND had to wait this long.

Ridiculous - causing or worthy of ridicule or derision; absurd; preposterous; laughable: a ridiculous plan.
Lets use this in a statement I find it ridiculous your " daily driver " is company fleet vechile ( does that even make it your vechile??? ) I find it even MORE ridiculous your complaining about having to wait for free repairs while your driving another company fleet vechile around. ------------------ Read -> Comprehend -> Post Scott S |1997 Honda Prelude - Sleeping | 2007 Ford Focus - Beater | FMP Apparel | Teknotik.com | R.I.P - Colin McRae "Straights are for fast cars, turns are for fast drivers " |

geez you guys are takin this wayyyy to seriously, i was merely saying that i was frustated at the fact that I have a custom stereo in the car and am frustrated that a little ding in the fender and bumper can take a month to fix...
as for it being rediculous for my company car being a daily driver, im not gonna apologize for having a good job with good benefits. ------------------ 1990 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo - new stereo comin this spring! 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000 Honda Odyssey |

No it's insanely radickuloius....
A good job, and good benefits, but can't spell? Quit bitching, you have a free car, and a free rental. Can't deal with not having a stupid stereo for 1 month? Deal with it like a man, no a emo girl. ------------------ Sebastien 1990 Honda Civic Cx B18A1 (slow as hell) matched to a YS1 w/LSD Missing the Lude. Scratch that, selling the lude... |

i say this just gets locked as the original intention of the thread was missed by everyone in the thread. he was just posting his frustration with how long the process to have his car fixed is taking becuase of corporate BS and policies.
and the Impala is an uncomfortable ride comparable to the maggie (which is surprising IMO) and since he spends a good chunk of his day in his car that's a big deal. ------------------ Life can change with every breathe, and it can end before the next.
