I'd call them and tell them to cancel it and that you'll be going elsewhere and then watch how fast it gets to you.

At this point I figured they either sold it out from under me, or they damaged it. They will be hearing from me tomorrow (the date they promised me on Friday that I'd have it by).

You're not actually cancelling it. You're just saying that to put pressure on them to move their you-know-what.

Other than the normal ... please lets work out a deal... I would suggest that you see what kind of free stuff you can get for your delays... i.e. free oil changes for a year... upgrades... ect.

Nah there's no delivery date in writing, just everytime I call to find out, I'm told "for certain" certain dates.

Maybe your Vibe secretly left your garage at night and bumped off your Rogue."How dare you try to get rid of me!"

well considering it took me 2 hours to get home from work (near the dealer, due to weather) I think the phone will do for toinght. Actually I just phoned and the salesguy had just "stepped out." I'm going to phone back until I get him. No voicemail which he can ignore!

I'm just SO mad! I mean I think I've been more than patient and now feel like I'm just being baited along.
