    A tale of two model years: Price increase comparison

    The only way that will happen if the consumer refuses to buy that product, which will never happen. Yes you would like a profit but raise everything by 1000% is stupid, but again we have no choice but pass the Vaseline around. Kiss me first, bend me over and grease the pole before you give it to...

That's what got my goat, you want customer service but you get the run around. So you go...
