Gift ideas for Tech

stressdoc · 02-12-2009, 04:26 PM

Any good ideas? Esp. from the techs online here. Tech is currently installing most of my new suspension. Six pack of Paulaner?

Beer is always good.

I know Long Tran appreciates a carton of Marlboro

bsamoul · 02-12-2009, 04:30 PM

cigars and beer?

methodtim · 02-12-2009, 04:31 PM

Beer is always good. If you know their taste for the harder stuff, you might want a nice 20 year scotch. Anyone who brings me and my team scotch is on my permanent Christmas card list.

Maybe an E90Post Hoody?

canucklion · 02-12-2009, 04:49 PM

I vote alcohol, either beer or liquor

I would say Hacker-Pschorr but nonetheless I vote for Bier.

A 12 pack of Yuengling and a blunt.

Any region is fine as long as it's aged correctly. I'm not a connoisseur, I'm just an appreciative drinker with a weakness for the good stuff.

Dealership tech. So I don't want to look like I'm bribing him. But I really appreciate the work and interest he has taken in my car. I'm one of the lucky few that has a great great great dealership.

Definitely high end booze then. Something you sip, not chug.

bulldog_yyc · 02-13-2009, 10:58 AM

you guys in the US have such a nice scotch selection, plus less tax on booze. Id become (more of an) alcoholic if I lived there. Def scotch is a good idea!

That is such a rare occurrence.
Anyway, why not a pack of Leonidas Pralines?

stickypaws · 02-14-2009, 07:19 PM

mekeni · 02-14-2009, 07:41 PM

single malt scotch

Park2670 · 02-14-2009, 07:44 PM

I always pay my tech buddies in alcohol, but I feel yours deserves a bit more than just a beer.
