I guess they want the better things for their kids like the rest of us...
Multiple reasons for me.
1) It cost me to tie up a bay waiting on a machine shop to do their thing.
2) The lability, I had rather put it on someone else.
3) it is not cheap anymore : (
4) The trill is not in it anymore I can make more money using plug and play remanufactured parts.

6) The public has been conditioned its gonna cost (the bad they don't read all the fine print) They see it has a "million mile multi year warranty" what they don't read is how the game is played.

I could look for the best deal in bulk on the parts if I got slow build engines, transmissions starters and alternators. When business picked up and someone came in I had labor stored ready to plug and play.
You cannot do that today you can try it but it better taste good...
