New Boss 8'2" V-XT Plow!

Postby starspangled6.0 [OP] » Nov 12 2011, 1:53pm

After a lot of waiting, I was finally able to pick up my truck from the plow shop yesterday, with the plow all ready to go. Sort of. The shop I dealt with is the most incompetent bunch of monkeys I've ever seen :oops:! From pushing back the installation date a week, without even telling me, to forgetting to order and install accessories that I EXPLICITLY SAID I WANTED, to not even giving an ounce of instruction once they handed over the keys; these guys really know how to suck at their business. Oh, and I was about one minute away from cooking the engine on the way home, since the plow was blocking all the airflow to the radiator (Hey, at least show me how to position the plow for travel :evil:). I'm super-busy with work right now, so all I have is this quick update.

This is why it's better to find that one or two particular shop(s) that can install things on your vehicle without stupidity.

Ahem... Pictures???? :P

First picture... it sucked, seeing my baby in the shop, with the plow on it... I could almost taste it! A week and a half away, and the darn incompetent dolts at the shop made me wait an hour and a half to drive it :x.
