Re: [DML] before the internet & another N.Y. Times article

["sandorp1" <piszar@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was in the Mustang hobby for 18 years before I sold my car and 
bought a Delorean.  Mustang owners have far more vendors than our 
marque, yet people were grateful to have such a large base of 
support for their Stangs.  They were also very supportive of each 
other and it was rare to find any arrogance from "experts".

When I bought my car and joined the forums I was surprised to see 
such a high level of negativity about the vendors as well as 
hostility towards individuals!  We are extremely lucky to have ANY 
support for our orphaned brand and should be grateful that we can 
keep our (sometimes problematic!) cars running and looking their 
best.  I have worked with Rob on numerous occasions and he would 
give you the shirt off his back.  Stephen and James at DMCH are just 
as great, and I have received good support from Special T Auto too.  

People need to realize that we are lucky to have any support at 
all.  Let's stop whining and start enjoying our hobby!  Otherwise 
those potential owners who stop by a forum to check out our hobby 
will be driven away and never return.

OK, I'll get off my soap box now.
