Larry, I meant to offend no one in particular, and only served to illustrate
the point that I was trying to make, that being that the GMC owners are a
very diverse group of individuals with different tastes and needs and what
works for some does not work for all of us. Please don't take offense, I
assure you that none was intended. I believe that my point was that complex
systems are more prone to failure than simple ones are, assuming that the
stresses are similar. I used the Lexus as an example of a modern automobile
that wears a reputation (earned or not) of being very reliable and trouble
free. That was all I really meant by the comment.
