Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Now do that Yelp review and Google review and drive that fucker's business away. Like a gud amuriken.

 

yelp review has already been left, with a few other customers hating on the same manager.

I popped my spare center cap on this morning after i was told the news. Oh whale.

 

Where was this at again?

 

Big O Tires in Vacaville.

Meanwhile I had to play rescue for our shop trailer. Always a risk going to the dump with blowing a tire.

 

Side shot gives me the wood.

 

yeah, I've had shitty experiences at Big O, and won't go there again. they broke a stud on my wife's Volvo, wouldn't do a thing about it.

I've since been going to the local family run Michelin branded tire dealer who's been in the business since the 1940s at the same site, THEY broke a stud on one of older cars, called, apologized that the car would take an extra hour, and fixed it without charge. You BET I'm recommending them, Lloyd's Tires in Santa Cruz.

 

the Big O in Benicia is amazing. I do all my work there for the company and personal. Never again at the Vacaville Big O

 

Fucken big o...they got me for 300. My fault tho....they said my cam bolts were frozen....stupid me bought only the long bolt...no busings or cam tabs.....they replaced the bolts. That didnt fix my seized bushing issue.....again, my dumbass fault for thinking that a bolt would solve that issue. But they did the work without mentioning, " hey, u should replace it all "

 

its not rake, its "natural curve". IYKWIM

 

I like curves..

 

Glad you got things sorted out. Kinda f'd up that after all that, the shop didn't at least try to make it right.

Big O is a part of the TBC corporation...try calling corporate (the number for TBC is 561-383-3100, Big O, 561-383-3000) and explain what happened along with the outcome.

 

I thought the wood comes before the side shot?

 

he skipped ahead about 3 min on the video timeline.

 

I, um, uhhh, don't know what you mean by that...

 

Loma Prieta on fire, it grew from tiny smoke stack to this in like 40 min...

 

From Santa Clara, it looks massive. News is showing pictures and saying there are maybe 300 homes being evac'd. Location is Loma Prieta and Loma Chiquita roads (about 10 miles from 17/Summit Road).

 

I could see flames at the peak of the mountain from my house at 85 Camden area.

 

Watching the news. They have four planes and five helis on the fire now.

 

Fires like this are bad, but they really make me miss being a firefighter. I still see flames and get semi chubbed up.

 

I've backpacked through wildland fires. Holy shit. It's f'd up how you can be amazed and awed while your world is burning down.
