that i'm not sure he's bs or not. but he can easily be #1 in the dealer. #1 worst service . even the sales mgr knew about that. but they wouldn't do anything since he's the so called #2 salesperson. all dealers are only looking at numbers

I can't believe Hawaii doesn't use the kind of stickers that most everyone else uses -- the kind that go on the inside of the windshield...

I remember having these on my car back in the 80s/90s when I lived in Hawaii. I remember the "in" thing back then was to screw-in a metal plate at the bottom of the bumper and attach the safety-check stickers there. I'm assuming that HPD has started to crack-down on that? I had a friend who was driving through Waikiki and got pulled over for that once upon a time. And from the cops' perspective, I guess these stickers make sense -- get a sense of whether the car is in full compliance or not from behind the car. But they sure do destroy the look of the car.

[/quote]Actually I like California's best, NONE! No safety check and no stickers. I remember waiting in line for those checks with my Mom when I was a kid in NJ...what a pita. I don't understand why you need a separate sticker for it. Why don't they tie it to registration...if you fail, you don't get renewed??? That's what they do for smog checks in California.
