Sorry guys, I want to keep the "hall of shame" limited to bullet items of vendors not to deal with, and not fill it up with too much discussion since that would make scanning the list more difficult. I stripped out the other interesting tidbits and put them in this thread. My appologies to the posters for losing the formatting.

I know this is late but you can get those Ts from the Ford parts dept. I got mine from the dealer in Coeur d'Alene, ID.

OK, I'm in Charleston SC, 100 or so miles from home, it's late (9:45 pm or so) had no supper, so I cut through the drive in to get a sandwich for the ride home. I order at the sign, pay at the 1st window, pull up to the 2nd window to get my food & it's not ready so the lady says "pull up to the yellow line and we'll bring it out to you". So I'm sitting at the yellow line when this semi attractive girl (about 25) walks up and says "how 'bout a ********? - - - well, I have a slight hearing loss and don't always hear exactly what was said, so just to be sure I said "excuse me?". She repeats herself, turns out I heard right the 1st time, only this time she adds "$30 bucks"! I was a little surprised and responded with "get outta here!", she countered with "OK $25."!!!
Well, Ive check at several McDonalds here in my town, and thats not on the menu here!!!!!!!!!!!!!:
dunno

Shoot, I called my wife & told her about it before I got ouy of the driveway!
I thought it was kind of funny. You don't really think the police can trap you like that do you? I thought to get arrested, you had to solicit the ******!?!?!?
