Hal,
You can relate to how frustrating it is for our shop as these small thing
constantly slow our production in our shop.
Since we are an authorized installer and dealer for for Blue Ox, we get in
40' pushers to wire up for towing, which tie up space and we need to get
them out quickly.
Unlike the GMC, we need to get wire diagrams from the manufactures and
there are sometimes over two hour wait before we can get help.
