Ilikemtb999,
Wow, thanks for the positive thoughts. Nope, I'm planning to get it all from Chris. It was just curiosity. If someone has a good engineered solution for me, provides me a quote and I choose to use that solution, then they have earned my business. Asking them if they can price match or budge on price is another matter and part of the bargaining process. Both of my parents owned businesses and I worked at both so I respect smaller shops as compared to huge parts houses. One of the huge problems in our country today is the loss of so many mom and pop stores. People always seek the cheapest solution, so many purchases leave the local community and go into the hands of the filthy rich...Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, etc. Were not talking strictly apples to apples but you get my point.
