Keith, I have the utmost respect for your personal opinions and your right
to express them. This subject is kinda like 5 BLIND guys looking at an
elephant. One has the tusks, another the tail, another the ear and so on.
None of them has enough information to be objective about what an elephant
looks like. I work on GMC motor homes every day. I see them in all kinds of
condition. My opinions are formed from experience working on lots of them.
You are entitled to your opinions just as I am to mine. Just the way it is,
I guess.
