Default New Job!

I wanted to tell someone so i figure i'd post here since its somewhat relevant. I start april 19th at the new Peninsula Honda in hampton as an express service writer. hope to see you peninsula guys more often now. I'll do my damn best to make sure no one screws up or screws you over if you bring your car to peninsula honda. i know alot of you, including myself, are very iffy when it comes to bringing the car to a dealership, truth is even honda hates working on our cars. anyways i'm super excited. hope to see yall around

Congratulations, and good luck with the new job. I'm curious about this statement though. Everything I've had to do so far has been easier than my previous cars. Is it really that bad compared to the rest of their line-up?

if I saw that, I would turn around and go to another dealership... the last person I'd want working on my car is someone who is resentful that you brought it in...

yea. i dont go to casey anymore. after they tried to sell me an entire transmission and diff b\c my cv joints were bad, i dont really trust their techs.

honestly though i'm pretty sure evo owners or rx-8 owners get the same reaction when they bring it to their parent dealership.

So, its just because they work on Civics 50% of the time and Accords another 35%. They can do most of the work blindfolded. I bet they probably hate the Ridgeline and Element too?

I know my oil change was a PITA compared to my old scepter (filter location is retarded, especially with the stock airbox), but then, with the scepter i could fit my whole torso into the engine bay in the empty space in front of the motor
