HAHAHAHAHA

I just had a phone call from some guy that want us to photograph their place at night! I figure I can just make some colored dots on a black background and be done. I explained that we don't have an GIANT ENORMOUS flash so there will not be anything to see. We could set the shutter to a long exposure and have a bunch of wiggly streaks but that will not help much.

There are several car brands I would not own here in OKC no matter how much I like the car because the local dealer service sucks so bad. Your experiences sound exactly like what I've heard about our local VW, Jeep, BMW, and GM dealerships.

Learn and move on dude.

Actually I am considering selling my 928 GTS because I am having some issues with the local service. It was once a shop that if a used Porsche had a Service By sticker from them meant it got a premium price. Since then a couple of Mechanics have retired and the ownership has gone from the father to the son. A 928 owner in Tulsa takes his car to an independent in Dallas (the guy that rebuilt my crashed valve motor). The problem I have is finding the time to take the car to Dallas to get things fixed.

You mean that expensive camera doesn't have night vision, pfft.

I would think there are 4 to 6 local GM dealerships. If you count Chevy there must be a dozen. Our local Porsche dealership has one mechanic I would trust with my 911 anytime I don't mind their price. Since he is the head mechanic he gets to pick and choose the cars to work on. Of course that means everyone comes to him with a problem they can't figure out.

I wish we had a Ed Mayo from Dallas class of shop locally. Just not a big enough market.

I'm practicing for next weekend and the vampire from down south.

Rick V 09-16-2013 03:17 PM

South huh? :)

Porsche-poor 09-16-2013 03:21 PM

well technically he is from south of here.

Rick V 09-16-2013 03:23 PM

Here in the south we call that "left" :D

Porsche-poor 09-16-2013 03:25 PM

well left of me is nothing but water. So he is south and you are southeast. or if you insist the "right" coast.

Rick V 09-16-2013 03:29 PM

I'm Ri-cheer

Porsche-poor 09-16-2013 03:31 PM
