A better solution would be to go to forums that are specific to that vehicle to do your "research"
By no means am I saying the OP or anyone else is not welcome here (who am I to say) I merely feel that myself, as well as others, being adults of what I consider to be reasonable intelligence, have the wherewithall to make decisions without the help of others, in particular strangers.
Take a look at 95% of these type of threads...Most are started with "which one should I get, I can afford them all and can't decide", and nowhere in the original post do you see "In terms of long range dependability, and cost of ownership", or anything remotely close.
And lastly I would like to say that anyone who posts threads in this manner should have a fire extinguisher nearby, because its Flame on.
As far as whether or not I am jealous for speaking my mind, I am starting a Poll thread so everyone else can vote on it, and decide
for me if I should be or not.
