So, what you are saying is that we should all continue to be price gouged on the remote chance that one day we will need something from that overpriced dealer? And hope that the dealer stays in business for that reason?
I have no problem supporting the local guy whenever possible. I DO have a problem with being charged as much as 10 times what a part should cost every time I need something.
Also note that I spent a lot of time peddling freight regionally here in the Northeast. I delivered to and picked up from many suppliers of auto parts. I saw a lot that most folks will never see.

It wasn't to show off my restoration skills (though I had tried my hand at a couple of old motorcycles in my teens and if I recall correctly, those old motorcycles were sold in boxes about one quarter finished). It wasn't to relive memories of Grampa, Dad or myself out on the back 40 nursing the Farmall pulling too many b
