you might be a rieger rocco owner if...
Not to get into the middle of all this 'exceptance', but I have sold cars, and
it was not much like the article written. While there is a certain amount of -
steering a customer- that goes on, I have never experienced it as much as this
fella has. I am not stating that his article is not true. What I am stating
is that any article written by a writer whose main objective is to sell
(ironic, isn't it?), will do just that... Boiled-down point--- Don't believe
everthing you read w/o question unless it is a technical manual, written by
the manufacturer. And even then, you -should- question some.
My point, and one of my theorems I operate by: No -one- person has the truth
on any topic, except one guy we can only now read about...
