And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

It has to do with a lease, my return of the vehicle under mileage and in immaculate condition and a dispute over tread depth. BMW charged me $850 for two run-flat tires on the rear even though there was ample tread.

My revenge fell short of finding legal ways to injure the dealership because it was a corporate policy.

Two people I know had similar experiences with the local Mercedes dealer. Why they play these games is beyond me, as it just costs them future business.
I'm thinking the stonewall. Although the jeep with it's nose in the air reminds me of adventure movies where the hero is stuck in quicksand and scrambling to get out while ever so slowly sinking to his inevitable demise!
