, that makes me drool again ! btw, my car is still in the shop and nobody calls ! today is the 5th working day and i'm not planning to give them any call. i want to see what kind of excuses they are going to tell me when i p/u the car. i think they are trying to test my patience ! even if i have their loaner, they still need to let me know what the hell is going on and why does it take so long ! it supposed to be a 1-2 days job but now is the 5th day !

Wow... you're a patient guy.. Must be an Hawaian thing. I would have called them 2 days ago to ask them what was going on.
But hey, maybe in hawai they take twice the time then normal because everything is so relaxed over there..

It's called "Island Mode".
Ppl over there see things different, and to be honest... When I am there - me too.
It's one of the most beautiful places on earth!
I highly recommend it.
And I can sell you tickets...

believe it or not, i'm a very impatient guy ! if someone promised to give me a call later that day and if he/she didn't call, i'm pissed . i'll call and ask. but this time is different. i always don't want to mess with the people in any car dealership. two reasons, not sure if i'll go back and buy another car from them. but if i do, they won't give me good price next time. also the service/tech guys can do whatever they want on your car if they don't like me. i don't want to go back every week .
yes, people in here are more relaxed and seems like their paces are slower than normal . to be honest, i can't stand it .
It's called "Island Mode".
well, for me, i called it "island mold"! i have to wait so long and molds are growing all over me but the job is still not done yet !
