I can't believe is actually read this whole thing. All these companies look like there doing good with the raptor long travel kits. Not widening the stance for RPG would be smart for a daily driver since parking spaces are small as they are. I would think that is one advantage. All I want to say is From what I have read and seen on here all these vendors have some amazing products. I just hope you guys keep up the good work you have been doing with the raptor.

So I just read this whole thread and I gotta say it was kind of embarrassing to read, from vendors taking digs at eachother in the beginning (which on forums i've been member of in the past would warrant a serious warning from admins), to a certain member that just couldn't stop being an ******. I'm glad the vendors sorted it out in the end, it seems you all make some quality looking products, but I'm a bit worried that this is the community I've made myself a part of. I know very little about LT setups and was hoping somewhere in this thread I'd learn a thing or two, jokes on me huh.

That's kinda sad then, I'm a little disappointed that I'm now a part of a community where one vendor can sit around and trash another vendors product/services without being policed up. In my opinion and from my experience being on automotive forums for the last 12 years or so, if someone is going to critique or even flat out verbally destroy a vendor it's usually an end user (which is the way i think it should be). But the vendors are generally stand up people that are big enough to not get wrapped up in the petty shit. Guess i'm just going to have to adapt to this mess.

**** admins suck. Personally I found this thread slightly entertaining.

The certain vendors on here have been trashing each other for years. There is a lot of shit in the background that most people just do not know about. The animosity and jealousy is quite simply stupid. I have been dragged into this shitpile since the beginning and all it has done is lost certain companies my business, respect and references to other people which in turn provides said companies with further lack of sales. The same can be said for certain individuals on this forum that would not even get pissed on by me if they were on fire.

This crap all goes on in the car world too. It is simply a fact of life that some people/companies are asshats /coughkennybellcough. I don't play with them because that is all this is. Playing. It isn't a matter of life or death. The world isn't going to end. My wife, kids and friends are still going to be there. **** it, I am here to have fun.

Don't be sad, be fortunate that your allowed to think on your own. No admin bias. Clearly you can figure out the shit talk from fact. Many times vendors on here sick there foot in there mouth, or do nothing but trash talk. Make your purchases based on what you think with all out in the open. Like SPRSNK said, buy from those who deserve your money. I know I do.

Good thoughts SPRSNK, and that is exactly what I am thinking, why would companies allow themselves to be drawn into participating in this sort of thing, it just make them look petty. Prior to reading this thread I had no bias toward any one vendor or company in this community, however now, there are a couple I'm excited to do business with in the future and maybe one or two that I wont poke with a ten foot pole. Don't get me wrong, I don't like **** admins, I mean i'm a Merican! lol But it is good practice I think to step in and keep things on track from time to time. I guess I'm just of the mind that product reviews are meant to be done by the consumer or independent third parties. When other companies get into it it reminds me of election time when all the ****** ass politicians put on their shit smearing boots and crank up their cameras for commercial time. SPRSNK you're a class act and that vehicle list in your sig is jealousy inducing.
