[DML] Re: Delorean fuel system

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is exactly what I have been trying to say (with my Loadstar analogy for example). Many times over the years I have encountered the community dogma that if K-Jet ever needs maintenance or repair, an owner needs only to take his DeLorean to the friendly neighborhood Volvo dealership and they will do all the work for him. Nothing could be further from the truth. Using Matt's example: there currently are at least 12 Volvo dealerships less than 50 miles from the Capitol -- how many of them are willing to touch a DeLorean? (Somebody with free long distance should call them to find out http://www.edmunds.com/dealerships/Volvo/DistrictofColumbia/DistrictOfColumbia/Washington-1.html).
