Default Our Cars Get Broke-In Properly... LOL

At work we got in trouble by our area rep... He found on 90% of our PDI (pre-delivery inspection) that none of the cars had 10 miles on them.. We are suppose to have 10 miles on every new car, suppose to drive them and make sure everything works.. Lots of the techs dont have time for that ----. So instead of test driving them, they put them all on lifts and drive the ---- out of them.. It was a pretty funny sight..



The whole shop was full of smoke after he was done... pegging this little Kia Rio out and nearly rev limit.



Peg that speedo!

We break our cars in "the right way"

Ahh, I'd fit right in at your shop, lol
Did that at our tireshop, but left the rear wheels just barely touching so we could get some smoke! Used a local dealers 'display' Geo Tracker for the honors....

I work at a harley dealer and we just recently install a magna supercharger on our "03" roadking. The techs took it on the street and gased it going about 20 and the damn bike turned sideways and smoked the tire for like a block, it was a beautiful sight brought a tear to my eye......lol.
