Hey, I'm not disappointed. But for those of us that live in the remote
areas, news is slow to come to us. I am just surprised at the frequency
of encountering the Lucas name in the past decade. Ironically it seemed
to start when I found that the company vehicle that we were using on a
job in Colombia was equipped with Lucas sparkplugs. Now Lucas seems to be
almost omnipresent.
For a two decade MG driver, it seems almost shocking to me.
