sorry sent before editing... to finish, "It makes sense that tuners spend the most time on development of a good product first, and then after offering those products, tend to gravitate to those they have had successful working experience with. I know Jon recognizes the time it takes to offer those products on a wider scale, and he has enlisted help for his web site to present them. It is a necessary and predictable adjustment on a business level. Jon nor any tuner can sit in front of the computer for an inordinate length of time. Jon's employee is Jon! It takes time to develop the relationships and deals to offer such a complete product line as the wheels Jon offers. (I know personally the effort it took to get these wheels for us.) It then takes time to review the inquiries after LONG days and weeks in the shop. For every inquiry that results in a sale, there are probably hundreds that don't. I would suggest patience, and understanding. Most of all I would suggest rewarding these individuals with actually BUYING rather than just talking about it. If you don't like the product, that is cool, that's free enterprise, let's just be reasonable." I apologize for the not strictly technical nature, and length of this post. I meant to send the prior post to my drafts folder for editing before it was sent so my response is less concise than I intended. Also, no accusations or direct confrontation of any individuals are intended in this post. It is simply my believe that far too many tuners and shops are condemned without considering the nature of the business, their hard work and the products they offer. A balance must be struck between constructive evaluation and review to further our choices for good products, as opposed to unwarranted criticism, and not purchasing good products that only serves to give us less, and poorer choices as more and more US, and international shops/tuners find it economically unrewarding to serve US V-Max owners.
