> Jim,
> You are one of the reasons i chose a GMCMH. You are one of the few remaining vendors that continues to provide valuable support and innovation for these machines. I respect and appreciate your opinions and commentary and encourage you to continue. I also understand and agree with most of what you have to say but I do feel compelled to comment on something that you do way too often, possibly to the detriment of your reputation.
>
> To quote you:
> "My rub is lurkers and others here will feel it's something they MUST have because you guys generate so much chatter about those things."
>
> The above statement is one of the many recent examples of the position that you often take when others have recommended a solution to a problem.
>
> Well i think you need to consider some of the products that you often push as a MUST HAVE.
>
> - The roller cam you state as the only solution to low ZDDP oils.
> - The Quadrabag rear suspension you push as the best and only safe alternative to the original air bags.
> - Quality paint work rather than an economy job.
>
> Well my beef is that none of the above are a MUST HAVE, as proven by the many coaches on the road that are surviving quite reliably without them. They are indeed quality items that are a valuable improvement to a coach but far from a MUST HAVE. Jim, we accept you pushing your strong opinion towards most of this stuff, but often you fail to include yourself in the category of people that you complain about.
>
> As i see it, the only MUST HAVES for a GMCMH is the desire to have a good time, patience, a mechanically safe and sound coach, and/or a reasonable budget to get you to that state. All the rest is totally an individual choice. As has been stated many times, we do what we do because we can.
