I'll feel much better if you can confirm for me that you'll have a toast in my honor, Michelle... I'm so jealous that I can't make it! I'll be in Austin, Texas on a biz trip... :mad:

Oh shoot! I'm sorry, Jay...I forgot to comment. We'll have a toast just for you...and one for everyone else that couldn't make it!

Here are pics of the scratch: :(

You can see how it most likely happened in the third picture. My guess is that the guy washing it had the wiper arm raised, but it fell back down with the wiper blade turned around and it scratched it :(

Ouch! That's one heck of scratch. They $tealer better fix for you.
When I give my X5 to dealer I tell them to note that I do not need car wash and they write it on the number tag they attach to keys. The dealer car washes are very crappy and I do not want to end with swirls anyway.

That sucks! I never let them wash my X when I take it in. :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Ouch, I'd be pissed!

Yeah, especially when it looked like this when it went in:

I think I'm gonna be sick :sick:

Did you give them a bunch of shit, I hope? That's rude.

I was waiting to talk to my SA when he called back about my rings this afternoon, but he never did, and I got really busy at work. I'm calling tomorrow morning. :mad:

Wow, that's too bad. :(

I'd be :mad: , too.

Get 'em to fix it for 'ya, Michelle.



(I'm in the group that instructs the dealer never to wash my X.)
