I wonder, almost nightly, why there is some maggot complaining about
somebody's prices and doesn't mention what the dealer cost would be. My
guess is that these people are probably some kind of government worker who
has never dreamed of having the balls to start their own business and have
no idea of what the overhead is i.e.: rent/mortgage, wages, insurance,
inventory, taxes,etc all before the owner takes his check, but of course
they don't deserve that because they're taking advantage of us poor gullible
dummies driving the vehicle of our choice. Go ahead......Whine somemore, and
these guys will go into a business  that they don't get their balls busted
in public, on line everytime they point out to somebody what the part # is
to their problem. Just gets kind of old at times.
Any problems with this message feel free to e-or p-mail.
Yours Sincerely in Christ    Bob Allen
