[quote name='rowtareh' date='May 17 2005, 11:51 PM']Yeah, I had to change them when I worked construction before. Had to take the bed off to access it. PITA!



Good thing. With my new job at Chrysler, if I sell 18 cars, I get a Company Car for 142 bucks a month with full coverage. I will get a Jeep Liberty more than likely(standard feature). And when it hits 4,999 miles, I get a new one.

I did it without taking the bed off. The hose on the filler neck does NOT want to go back on by any means... And I did that when I was working construction, on company time, on a company truck. I guess old F150's are popular in construction?



Congrats on the new job. Im waiting to hear back from the mazda dealer.

We had 94 to 02s in the shop mainly. You talking about the intank fuel pump right?



Yeah, I would have applied at Mazda, but the closest one is about a 1.5 hour drive. Don't want to do that everyday. Besides, Chrysler is just as good I think. A little more luxurious though with that 300, Crossfire, and Pacifica. I might be able to work a transfer to Mazda in about 2 years maybe, or just go straight to Lexus/Toyota. The Toyota dealer through our companies sells around 400 vehicles a month. Hopefully, through your dealers you have a good enough benefit package as I do. Are you going to do sales, or service?

Got me into rotaries, and I love it. Also introduced me to the wide world of speeding tickets. I chose it over a 350Z and don't regret it.

 

I thought I posted here already...



My daily crash and bash, it has served me well for four years now...

Yeah, the intank pump.



Service, because there is noone in the area that knows rotaries. Ive considered sales, might still if the othe falls through.

 

Sales is obviously where the money is at. I have been at the dealership for 3 days only, and have contact info for two people. And those two were from tonight.



One of them wants to get a SRT6 Crossfire, Crossfire Roadster, and the 300 HemiC AWD. That would be a HUGE commission check, because they don't haggle on the prices of those 3 main cars. They might for all 3 though.



It is very good money, you just gotta sell obviously.



89 Rag: I still love that S-10. It is the hotness.

Yeah, Ive worked sales before(not cars), and I know theres money to be had, and a lot of it in the right business, but that sort of job isnt really what Im looking for now. Like I said, Ive considered it, but its not high on my priority list for what I want to do.

Understood, as long as you know about the amount of money to be earned. I am closer to a sale every day, just takes time.



Good luck with Mazda though, I hope you get the job. I wonder if Sales did not work out for me I could transfer to the Silver Spring Mazda. I am no rotary guru, but I am sure I know more than the guys in service.

The knowledge can always be learned. Its the knowledge base that you use to go about menial tasks, and how you learn that really matters. Its a lot easier to learn car specific knowledge, than to learn a maintenance "mindset."

 

You do have a point there Adam. But some of the guys in our service area are car nuts. They know alot about them. They just don't know **** about rotaries, and don't really need to know about them.
