Why so many gloom and doomers on this site
Man some of you Mopar guys are a bunch of Nancy’s. .
You might consider that "some" have a point. There is no doubt that in my area, C/L has been abandoned for Marketpharce, and IT BLOWS. Plus it SUCKS. The search feature is horrid. Also, you live in a VERY dense area of the US, and the volume of parts, even though subject to rust, is several levels what it is out here "in the rural" areas. The biggest town around here for hundreds of miles is Spokane. Moscow/ Lewiston to the south are both "farming" (college) towns and not that large. Montana to the E has nothing for hundreds of miles. Missoula is a VERY long ride from here. I have not been to Kanuhduh for decades, and don't even have a passport, now required.
There is also no doubt that there is "no such thing" as a real parts store anymore. Even NAPA, who at one time was "the standard" has dropped into the "china import" category.
And then there's this: I payed damn good money, last year, for an outfit "with good reviews" to put the front and rear glass in the Scamp. This was nearly like an assembly line new car. The top had been replaced, and the glass openings were squeeky clean and painted. Perfect. Glass had been meticulously cleaned, and of course new gaskets. Fuckin things leaked like a screen door on a submarine. I had that son of a ***** back to them FOUR times and it "ain't over yet." I cannot put any of the interior back into the thing until I get this resolved. As soon as "spring" gets going here I'll have to unwrap the thing and try to decide WTF to do next.
