A noble sentiment, however RF would not be in trouble if they had not
spent their profits on restaurants and children's books. When I place an
order I need to get the parts NOW, not after the next container comes in
from England.
I tried to support RF, but couldn't pay the extra cost in time lost, or
the extra shipping charges to get some parts from them, and the rest
elsewhere. Why in the world would they EVER be out of stock on tune-up
items, or oil filters?!!
I wish the best for Charles, John, Dave and the crew there, but they
have to take better care of business in order to get more of mine.
IMHO, Jim
