:dillerman: ??? Or wherever?
Unless you're getting real service done, dealers seem to use :derp: trainees to do basic maintenance. I did my first oil change at 1k miles post break-in and gave them a 5L jug of Motul to use. Car takes 4.3L for an oil change. Came back to the service desk, paid, went out to the car, no leftover oil in the car. Didn't think much of it at the time, but when I got home it dawns on me I should have had oil left over.

I wait 10 minutes, check the level, and whaddaya know, they must have put in the full 5L. It's WAY above the full mark. Break out my fluid extractor and pull some out to get it down to the top line, but jeebus. SOA is so cranky about warranty work on the EJ that I want to take it to the dealer to cover my ass, but I don't at all want to go back because they're a bunch of idiots.
:disappoint:
Yeah I was considering dillerman because of the bitchy attitude SoA seems to have regarding warranty stuff.

Isn't the first one free at that :dillerman: ?
No idea, probably not. I'll probably just do it at dillerman, as that'll prop used values.
:dat: 's what I'd do.

I'd get the oil changed at the :dillerman: too.

I think the :derp: mechanics are the ones that do the "service express" stuff that's just oil changes and tire rotations. Does Subaru have something like that? You probably need to make an appointment for a better tech.

It was one of the last 2017s in the area, so I think it was a bit of a one-off case, but yeah. Pretty :mindblown: really.

The bonus cash on all 2017's is :impressive: right now, and can somehow be applied to leases.

Eh, I'll make less per car at BMW.

It's all about whoring out units there.
You'd think you'd have an easier time there than at a failing brand... Aint nobody buying a mini right meow.

Industry incentive spending is probably the highest it's been all year. Numbers won't come out for another few days, but I think the push is real. Even if a certain brand isn't :dill: ing that hard, a rising tide raises all boats or whatever.

I think the market stabilized... Honestly... these hurricanes literally wiped out more vehicles than C4C, there will be sales spikes.

The hurricanes will probably put an end to crazy sales for a few months, but the beginning of this month was pretty nuts.

You guys ran TV ads here advertising truks at 11-12k OFF. Not :dillerman: official GM AIDS.

They will probably get diverted to #Texass now... or just banged out in Detroit over the next few weeks.

There should be a sales spike for you guys this month... prior month is likely down due to flooding etc...

$4k of Hurricane relief funding supplied by :dillerman: COME GET YOUR TRUK TODAY!

(note that $4k is less incentive spending than they've been supplying but hey you get it under MSRP so WOOOOO! YOLO!)
