I guess they win, then. Unfortunate. Money always seems to win out in
these things.

Re: new wheels-opinions/suggestions? heard of rocky-road.com? any other ideas?
They are a semi-local shop for me, just 30-40 minutes away. My uncle got
some rocker guards from them for his Grand Cherokee that looked pretty good.
Some other local guys have said good things about them. This is the first
bad that I have heard about them. I would like to see the local guys do
well, but they are playing in a world wide market they need to keep their
service up to world standards. They need to keep everyone happy if they are
going to make it. If I get any more feedback about them I will post it up.

Yup, I caught one company loading internet spyware when their sales reps
do a home demo and use one of those mini CD's.
I got threatened big time too not to divulge their names.
