I have no plans for the 21st. I think I may just go to that one.

I'll check the SLC rotary schedule, looks like beer and poker, but not sure if it's an open invite or not though. So we'll see.

That's freaking awesome Dave. Good to hear. All these new engines around makes me want one too, but not really.

Hey, that's great! When will you have it back?

My engine's only got 8700 miles on it, barely broken in.

BTW, I had mine inspected yesterday so I could renew my registration. I took it to D. Dahle, had them change the oil while they were at it.

When I went out to drive home after they finished, I found that they had broken my center console lid! I stormed back in there and made them replace it immediately. They did it right there in front of the service-writer's desk. Idiots! And they put a big smudge on my windshield, I'm gessing when they put the oil-change sticker on the windshield.

This is the first less-than-satisfactory experience I've had at a Mazda dealer. I'm going to include it in the questionaire that comes from Mazda after each service visit. No excuses.

Start your premix right away, and order yourself a case from Mazdatrix.

Correct! I plan on having this car a long time(even though it is auto!) so I want to treat it right!

D. Dahle is the worse place for any mazda to be taken inn for service (from my own experience with my 3 mazdas) maybe that is where my center console broke from

I'm leary of any dealer, no one takes better care of your stuff than you ya know.

Good that they fixed it for you on the spot Chuck, that's utter bullshit.

Well, I had to stand my ground. His easiest route was to make me happy immediately.

I bought my car from Legacy. They were giving me free oil changes, but it cost me a lot of gas and time to get there. When they folded, I went to Bountiful and D.Dahle. Freeway Mazda is too far to go for me- further than Legacy was.

This is the first time D. Dahle has exhibited a problem. They've always accommodated me on my terms, and really, they did do what I asked them to do on the console lid, so I can't be too unhappy with them.

Waving my extended warranty under their noses is usually all I need to do. I paid 2 grand for that sucker and I'm going to make sure I didn't throw my money away!

BTW, guys, I'm looking seriously at the Mazdaspeed exhaust. The one with two little mufflers, not the one big one like stock. Anybody heard one of those?

I wonder what happened to Cline's Mazda. It's where I bought my RX-7 back in '79. They disappeared some years ago, I guess.
