Hey – I read your old posts....I live in PA as well, I think thus far we have had 1 inch of snow ? As for the dealerships – I have had an issue ordering my car, I am working with Princeton MINI in NJ....these guys are probably the best dealership I have ever worked with – period. Give these guys a call and tell them what you have and where you are looking to get, they’ll get you there. As for 8+ inches of snow....forget it – in the past 10 years we have had maybe 1 storm like that every other year, and I have never seen any road (outside of a residential development) accumulate 8 unplowed inches. Get the Mini and stay home when it snows

My friend, once again your viewpoint is skewed. If Mark was truly just "protecting the vendor", the thread would have been deleted, permanently. It was taken offline for a number of hours while "under review", and but it has been back in public view ever since.

Yes, Mark closed it yesterday... because at some point it's just beating a dead horse.

However, in your strong skepticism towards vendor/NAM/member policies, you have never once acknowledged that the negative information remains publicly visible, including being picked up by search engines, including Google.

The fact that the OP himself has recognized this is not the place to start a long, drawn out PR-damaging campaign only further refutes your ridiculous comment.

Give the high horse a rest, Scott.

hmmmm

still locked.

As for your search engine.........

How many posts have we all read that started out by saying....."tried to search, but found nothing"

And how are we to know that NAM didn't ask the OP to make this post?

Mark has consistently posted that he wants us as members to hash this stuff out with vendors.....but he doesn't really ever let it get there does he. Nor will he step in and remove a vendor from NAM when he has had proof of their deceptions and lying.
