**smiling** I think you think that I am disagreeing w/ you bro. I am not. Look back, I was 1 of the 1st in this thread to say that the market is getting whored out. I am just saying that you can still live in parts if you diversify and if you are smart. Business is cut-throat, it always has been, it always will be. I studied Sam Waltons tactics in college and he is PROOF that it's cut-throat. But when you establish relationships w/ PEOPLE, not just the business (something that you do very well Mike, by the way

) then you can all still come out on top Bro. I stand by what I say when I say the parts market is not dead, it's just different rules than it used to be. Also, every1 does NOT get the same deal bro. Trust me. All in all, you dropped a LOT of knowledge in this thread.
