    yeah I was really looking for a quicksand manual but I have this long rant about the stealership in Panama City for that. I think it would look better without the gloss paint and they did a matte.

    One small penis and two enormous nuts I read somewhere. Would comparison be a grain of rice and two coconuts?

    You've probably seen my Tundra around, '14 DCSB, bull bar, 8" Pro Comp on 35's with metal mulisha decals on it (wife stole it since then...). We pulled up and the vultures started circling. I stated we were looking for a manual/quicksand/double cab. I assumed they wouldn't have that exact setup so I asked if I could drive any manual to see as I have never owned a Tacoma. Many, many jeeps so the clutch couldn't be more loose than that but you'd be crazy NOT to test drive before you buy. He plainly stated that they couldn't keep a manual on the lot because they sell right away. I then asked if they could get any manual in, I'd test drive and buy it in whatever color it was or order a quicksand. He replied "we won't order anything without a commitment to purchase because if you don't buy it, we aren't sure if we could sell it." EVEN THOUGH HE JUST SAID THEY COULDN'T KEEP MANUALS ON THE F'N LOT! Obviously they didn't want our money... Wife scoffs and walks to the Tundra, I talk to the inventory manager and he confirms what the vulture said. They knew I was going to buy a truck but didn't seem very interested in selling. Two weeks later I found my Super White in Pensacola. During my 5k service I pulled up to the front where the salesmen sulk: "Gentleman, do you know where I go for my brand new truck that I didn't buy here to get serviced?"

    The list of ongoing horrible customer service at dealerships yet to amaze me.

    What color is the tundra? That setup sounds familiar. And yeah, buying vehicles in this town has always been a no no. My parents have always gone to Pensacola or Dothan to buy. Took over a week to buy my Tacoma new in 01

    No, sir. It would never be in there. Our garage is currently occupied. My Taco next to my wife's recently painted '71 Buick and my '29 Model A (Chevy powered so it is ok)

    Funny story about that... Harley Davidson did the basic riders course for free a few years back. My wife used to ride in the Navy so I took the weekend course with all intentions of buying a Honda Fury. She wanted a Can-Am Spyder but with the way people drive here we decided it would be safer to hold off. I found the Ford on my way two weeks later for sale at the mall. The Buick was purchased while I sat at the USO in Baltimore on my way to the desert last February. Someday we'll get bikes, just don't have the garage space for them.
