I hear a lot of bad things about Macs. I don't even know who they are. I have never bought anything from them. I usually find the parts I need here on the fordbarn, used or NOS. You can't beat genuine Ford parts and the good folks here.

JM, I sent you a private message. I had a question about rear end ratios. If you don't PM I can just start a thread or email.

As knives in the drawer go, there was a small mistake which the Mac's apologists deflecting, jumped on, however I know the frustration of any outfit that doesn't make it completely clear how much the grand total is and uses any slight of hand to sidestep the value of promos that bring a customer in and then a questionable stock glitz blows the whole advantage of the promo. Seems that most of the big vendors do it and it is not to be liked, but we do what we can. Shipping is the new profit center where their buying power brings us in, then the slam us with either the fine print or complexity of the software. I notice that Ryan gets tired of the complaints. Don't understand what's going on there, but as always Caveat.... Good Luck: Fred A
