Fuck Triple Crown. My mom took vert Corvette there to trade in on an Escalade. They took it for a short "test drive". When it got back to us, it had like 90 extra miles on the odometer, and smelled like burnt rubber. AND they lowballed the shit out of her.
why would you allow ANYONE to drive your car without you being there? 90 extra miles = around 1 1/2 hours, I'd would fuck somebody up for taking my car for that long especially if im not there.

No dude, it was 90 extra miles, but in about 10 minutes. and they always take cars out while you stay and talk to the salesman over there. I'm like 90% sure they did that to the OP as well...

thats sounds kinda weird, 90 miles in 10 minutes is impossible,even if they got on the freeway and did 200mph they still would have been gone close to an hour... the burned rubber and low ball I can believe but 90 miles in 10 minutes you sure it wasnt longer...

this... x 2. it's your car. don't let anyone test drive it without you. on second thought, u shoulda been driving it with them riding bitch if they felt the need to test drive it. [ May 16, 2010, 05:57 PM: Message edited by: 93ReefBlue5.0 ]

wasn't my car guys. Mom felt no need to go on the test drive. and at the most, it was maaaayybe 20 minutes. i don't super clearly remember the events of the day... it was over a year ago. But, i'm pretty sure she filled her tank before heading to the dealer, and reset her trip-odometer. and thats the only reason she noticed all the extra miles when she got home.
and you are aware that the odometer still reads during burnouts/doughnuts, right?

Man, I love CAFords. haha
I just agree that Triple Crown sucks. my mom took her Vette there to trade-in on an Escalade, there was no "asking price", but she hoped and expected more than $10k on a low mileage C5 vert. they offered her $8k and told her "that offer is only good for 48 hours"... I didn't go with her. She was gone probably an hour to an hour and a half. I don't clearly remember. But when she got home, she noticed the trip meter said she drove close to 120 miles. She lives off Fulton and Arden. So i looked the car over and it stunk like burnt rubber. The rear wheel wells had a lining of dried rubber residue. I DO remember that, cuz I washed it off.
in closing; Fuck Triple Crown Auto

you really cannot honestly think they put 90 miles on a car in ten minutes. if your drove the car 180mph it would take 30 minutes to put on 90 miles. its simple math

Sounds right.
90-miles in 10-minutes means they averaged 540mph for those 10-minutes. If you are going to bad-mouth a business, at least tell the truth (by the looks of things, nobody has to exaggerate the practices carried out by this particular business anyway)

Very true, BBB rates the business a F... that says it all in my book.

Thats a little bit of an exaggeration there. 90 miles in 10 mins in a car?

Why would a dealership fire an employee who tried to bring them business? Dealerships are a ripoff so don't expect the management to do something about it. They probably encouraged him to do more of these "scams" lol
