Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

I really detest Checkered Flag, bought my truck from them. Had my truck serviced there once, once. Never again. I always go to Priority now.

 

Id check if any got on your alternator. I spilled some oil on my alternator last oil change 2 days later alternator stopped working

 

Bought my first Toyota from them MANY years ago (still feeder roads on the Blvd.!). It was a miserable experience from the git go. IAs a young squid, they rolled me pretty good. I'm sure it's all different folks there now but I really don't hear too much. I've since bought 5 Toyotas from Charles Barker. No pressure, no haggling as we go in say "we'll pay this much out the door" and do!), and I have the same service guy (Fred) for 5 years now and get incredible pricing!!!

I don't hear too much bad about Priority either except their sales force rotates almost as much as Checkered.... but that doesn't matter much.

I been in Churchland working 2 x's this week right across the street from the High School. Was gonna swing by Chris's house to try and get some 1st gen parts for my 2nd gen! I wanna have those tail lights just like Ben ! Problem is I always loose my sense of direction out there! Bruin, Bruce, Taylor.... Arrrrghhhh!

 

Haha, if I see you anywhere near my truck Ill throw my AR15 lower at your big head.

 

Ah, you'll play catch. Makes sense.

They are always hiring... I heard they sucked to work for though, looking for something a little closer to me than williamsburg.

 

I just bought the stuff to switch from a roof mounted magnetic whip to a firestik. I hated having the antenna being knocked over every time I went through a tight trail. If you do end up going with the whip, though, and want a magnetic one I'll cut you a deal on mine.

 

can you plants tulips?

 

"him puts the lotion on or him get's the hose again."

 

They have long hours. I worked more than 60hr's a week and since its a seasonal job, no overtime . But I got more money from Watercountry than anywhere else. And I got a nice tan .

 

Agreed -- avoid checkered flag at all costs. They really tried to screw me on my trade in and on the price of a truck when I was looking. Tried to play me like I was a moron. Offered me $25k for a year old $43k car. Carmax gave me more with no haggling. Then they wouldn't honor the price they gave me on the truck because they were trying to play me with the numbers game.

Priority Toyota -- Truck sales manager's name is TOM. Great guy to deal with! Best price I could find in the hampton roads.

Although I will say -- don't go to Priority for an inspection. I won't again, even if it is free for life. Wouldn't pass me because of my fog light mod. Cant imagine what the inspector would say about my retrofit and halo's.

 

Bought my fr-s from checkered and had no issues. Was pleasant to deal with

 

I took my tundra to checkered and just bought my taco and my wife's frs from checkered...no issues.

 

Yeah this. I had a oil leak from valve covers for like 2-3 years right above the alternator and it finally took out the alternator in emporia va on my way back from Raleigh

 

Our alternators are that bad? just a few drops of oil and they die? How do people submerge them and keep running.

 

Who is this? Here?
