Hello, around 2:30 est I will be at the Honda dealership getting my airbag replaced cause my car currently has the Takata death airbags that shoot metal into your face then you die. My guess is that I will be very bored, so I would appreciate it if you all could entertain me while I am there. Thanks in advance.

Try to get a good deal on a trade-in, keep telling the salesman you've got new airbags so you think your car should be worth more than he's offering.

LOL my Takata Death Bag swap was done in like 45 minutes.

Or maybe they just disconnected it or replaced it with a legit Claymore, I dunno and honestly I don't care because driving with a loaded shotgun in your face is liberating.

Yes, can't do burnouts in the parking lot if the owner is sitting in the shop. :mad:

Real answer is that I work at a small-ish shop so it's tough to cater to that. Getting a tech to drop everything he's already working on for one person who insists on waiting around for an oil change and tire rotation is a pain in the rear end.

We do it once in a while for regulars, but we get them to be here the minute we open so that the tech isn't already elbows deep in something else.

OP have you considered maybe just chancing it instead of wasting your afternoon? high velocity metal bits into the face sounds like a pretty good way to go all things considered

Like think about it. I'm driving a multi-ton death mobile usually 10 over the speed limit and any gently caress up has the possibility of either killing me or turning me into Eugene from Preacher.

That's pretty cool because for the former, LOL who gives a poo poo what happens, my brains just got splattered all over so later, shitlords. For the latter, Eugene is a pretty decent kid who just wants to be nice to people and chug his meat smoothies and that sounds like a pretty nice plan.

The trouble with weather forecasting is that it's right too often for us to ignore it and wrong too often for us to rely on it.

At least you're getting your death metal airbag replaced. I got the recall notice in the mail over a month ago for my VW that said they have no estimated time on when a fix will be available for my car :ohdear:.

Enjoy your new non-metal shooting death airbag!

And while doing this make sure to take the car sales man around town as you run errands such as getting groceries, going by the bank, stopping by Wal-Mart just to simply walk around and every time the car sales man says you need to get the car back to the car lot, look at him with a sad look and say "But I thought we were having so much fun and you were my friend!" and see how long you can string him along.
