I spoke to Larry about this a while back.  He wasn't really interested in
doing the map overlay route that I am going.  I want to have all of these
shops on Google Maps so that if a person is broken down, they can pull it
up and find a shop local to them, then just a couple of clicks and they
have navigation.  I am NOT interested in having to deal with updating a
shop referencing guide like Larry does.  So there is still a place for both
of these.  My map will have ratings on most of the shops but it will be
from Google users not necessarily Vanagon owners.  If you find a shop on my
map, you could easily look them up in Roadhaus to see what other Vanagon
owners are saying.
