I hope you all read this and let them know you can't treat our troops like crap.

Russel has done something like this before. If you do search in 1addicts forum, there is a story where the CA (Korey Mathews) sold a car that was ordered by one of the forum members !!

I sent few e-mail to them asking if they treated their customers that way and they never replied.

Few months ago, my tire pressure sensor went off due to the extreme cold. Since I didn't want to drive on it all the way home and I was only few miles from Russell, I called and drove over there. I arrived at the dealership at 5:45PM. It was a mad house, I barely had enough space to get in the service area. There was female SA that was yelling at the customer that pulled up too close to the automatic garage door opener sensor. She didn't want the door opened due to the cold. When I was finally approached by SA, he says you don't have a flat. So I told him I was concerned about driving with low air pressure so I brought it in to have it looked at . He says "Well, I don't have anyone to take a look at your car now. can you come back tomorrow ?" . I said "OK" and left . I have never gone back. I now take my car to other BMW dealership that are farther away from me. And Yes I bought my first BMW from these guys when they had the Toyota and BMW dealership in same tiny lot.
