    I want to thank all of you and the responses to my 12-03 post regarding the lift of the rear of my truck. This is the first I have heard of the recall and will be visiting my dealer soon.
    Love this site... would like to spend more here.

    Weird thing happened in SF yesterday, I was at a Josie l job site and as usual the street cleaners went by and the few cars that didn't move got tickets. Then followed a female on a vespa, she was pulling the tickets of the cars and putting them back, not sure what she was doing, paying for them? Would have been nice.

    Probably some startup collecting data for their new product/service.

    I was wondering the same thing. There's a service you can pay to fight your parking tickets. They take a percentage of what the fine would be if you win. If you lose, you don't pay. Maybe it's them gathering data?

    They're very unorganized.

    I ordered on Black Friday because their sale, they told me 3-4 weeks wait. Not a problem from me i understand being busy. So they email me saying its being picked up on 12/17/14 and since they're in SoCal i should have it thursday/friday. Nothing showed up and the tracking # they gave me is wrong and SAIA says they havent picked up from McNeil since November. They were supposed to call me Friday and didnt, when i called them they were closed apparently.

    Ive been calling them off the hook and they finally answered and he is looking into it, his BOL shows they picked it up Wednesday, hes not sure why SAIA said that as they've picked up every day last week. So hopefully he will get back to me shortly.

    Either they're extremely short handed and unorganized or they have been sniffing fumes too long.

    EDIT: Also im glad i called because originally the address was wrong even though the order address was right when sent in, wrong city with wrong address. Also they originally told me they didnt have an order for me but i was charged. So they are all over the map.

    I called all day today with no answer. I sent them an email asking if they'd like to respond or I can file a claim on my credit card and we can go from there. Up to you.

    He said he has the bill of lading but won't give it to me, I asked for a pic of it. No go. He "called" the company and called me back 4 hours later and said they thought it was a residential address so they held it. He got the business name so is going to add it and I will see it by 3pm tomorrow. Who knows if I will or not. What a joke this has become.

    Thanks! Someone told me you might have a bumper for sale soon?:spy:
    Thanks! I'll have to see where I can get a better deal. I might try and get all my parts together a little at a time and then install them. I can't get my self to drop $4000 all at once.

    Looks awesome! I still don't know what I'm going to do if they don't show up tomorrow. Close to saying screw it and cancel if they don't show. Guarantee they won't answer my call if they don't show at 3pm tomorrow. I'll have my phone ready.
