I would to take this post to thank you all for helping me reach our sales goal. I now get 3 day weekends all summer. The thank you is extended to both those you bought something and also those who posted worthless posts and kept me sane while I was dealing with crazy customers. Oh yeah and chalk me up for another post.

A lot of independent shops use an A-hole tax, this is applied when a customer purchases goods online at a discount like say tires. Then they bring them to a shop to be installed. This is basically cutting the shop out of their profit margin on the tire. Some shops will even turn the customer down all together. The owner of a shop on the east coast who I will not name even though he would gladly sign this post, just uses 3 words. Go #### yourself.

Speaking of tires, I'd like to remind our good members of Ol' Chuck "Deluxe" Ruiz, owner of Gillette HD who attained ***** of the Year award for the service practices of his shop. I hope people in transit avoid your dealerships this year Chuck.
