People like purple:rofl:
Back when diesels became popular they were pretty much the only big game in town and they can market a product that's for sure.They aren't really bad persay just not as good as some others I guess.Mine lasted for 4 years of abuse but the second my twins were on it gave up the farm in a hurry............like the same day they were installed lol.
They do not have the luxury of really being focused on/tuned in on the perfection or tailoring of any one product and therein lies the core problem. Their R&D left the Allison a long time ago. IMO this is why Mike L is so damn good at what he does. He has focused on the Allison for so many years and seen every kind of failure there is. Great companies like Alto and Raybestos send products to him for testing. That says a lot. He has amazing connections with Allison and has a info sharing pipeline with some of the best minds in the country. He's dedicated and determined to perfect his niche market product and that's where you become the winner.
Anyone who has been around high end custom home building knows a customer hires a GC to build a home for a couple reasons. His ability to well MANAGE a building project and his access to the best "Subs" or SPECIALISTS around. Too hard to expect perfection from a jack of all trades. A beautiful custom home deserves the best framers, plumbers, electricians, masons, tile setters, painters/plasterers, carpenters, AND YES WOOD FLOOR GUYS! A diesel owner is a lot like someone having their dream home built. They want to spend their money on the best and know it will last and was done right by someone who does it everyday. More importantly by someone who has GOTTEN BETTER at it every day through experience. Hope you see my point. Sorry for the novel.
