JAC,
Not sure of the real point or intention of your posting but if you have a question or issue with parts or
anything,
pick up the phone!
In my dealings, over the last ten years, with Don, Pete and the rest of Don's crew I have had only the most honest, fair, helpful and responsive treatment - even when there was absolutely nothing in it for him/them. I hold them head and shoulders above any other company in any other industry I have had experience with. I'm sure my experience is not out of the ordinary.
I'm sure there are a couple of more things you can be doing with/to your project... Besides, even with our mild winter so far, you won't be able to drive it until April anyway
Happy New Year!
