This saga will never end.
I get a call on Saturday that the car will be in on Monday..
only problem is that they haven't looked/arranged for the wheels yet...no biggie.. get on that now, and they'll be in by the time the car is ready for delivery.
So here we are on Wednesday. The car has arrived at the dealership.
The wheels have not yet been ordered. The tint guys can't tint the car until Friday, and the striping hasn't been ordered or scheduled.
So I express my disappointment, and say, "let's just assume that if you guys haven't arranged the striping yet, that's not going to get done tomorrow or likely this week"...
Talk about sucking every last ounce of fun out of getting a new car... I can't even pretend to be excited right now, just pissed off that I'll probably have to give the focus another oil change/service before the stang is ready...
So anyways, no sense calling the insurance company today to give the go-ahead.. looks like I might (or most likely won't be) picking up the new car next week.
piss me off!
If this echos my experience with getting the focus... and so far it's gone exactly by the same script, I'll still have to have the tint redone once, and the stripe done 3 more times, and then run into issues with the wheels.
