[DeTomaso] Ridiculous Shipping Charges

[adin at frontier.net]

Well, hell . . . .

Everybody gets grouchy once in a while.

How about just the good stuff?  I just finished (ok, almost) a 9 month  
build with lots of ups and downs (yes, sounds like a weekend w/ the  
TPR boyz) but in the end . . . (hopefully - still have a couple of  
issues to button up) all the vendors were pretty good/helpful.  It  
should be noted it would be VERY important to post followups to the  
grouchy stuff if a vendor resolves the problem.

I remember lots of bad press about Lightning pickup motors - turns out  
when you double the boost and up the redline you get a bad outcome.  
and tremec gear boxes - if you don't install them properly they don't  
shift well - duh.

My $.02 for the day . . .
