Harley Truck is a sore topic right now, The body shop has had it since the end of April and I have heard every excuse in the book from we fired some one to someone quit to we a swapped with Insurance jobs,but last week I told the guy that unless he is reducing the overall price that he quoted me that he needs to finish my truck pronto!!!!! So I'm going by next Fri. to see what has been done and then I'll go from there. With what all needed to be done, the truck should have been finished in a month!
I want be taking anything else to that shop. I wanted the guy that painted the suburban to paint it but he has a 2 year waiting list and I dont have that much time.lol Sorry so long but I'm kinda PO about this.
