Anyone remember that story of a dealership (Chevy I believe) stealing back someone's truck because they felt they let it go for cheap?

I know what u mean. Everytime they drive in/out of the service bay area into the driveway where customers pickup/dropoff their BMWs, there's a narrow entrance. They zoom through it at like, 25mph even though there's often other BMWs parked on the side. I'm always when I see them drive........I picture them driving thru and snapping my side mirrors off!

There are pics somewhere of a 2nd gen X5 that fell off a hoist during a routine service procedure.

These sort of accidents can happen to anyone and its just the luck of the draw as to who it happens to.
