    $2300 for a tail light for a Ford F150? That can't be right..

    They wont have them I can 99.9% guarantee it. Cars like that dont even go to car salvage places. Most get cut and restored. The ones that do hit the junk yard have the tail lights sold before the husk rolls off the flat bed.

    Russia's 'Pearl Harbor'

    Oh you see here you are wrong. Plenty of people in USSR remmer the "good". The way things operated was slavery by any other name. While half the country was in prison or being slaves the other half got to be "good communists" and live off the people toiling in the fields and starving and dying...

    Just venting, terrible customer service

    They are having a hard time finding people that give an damn. Many places have that problem now. Also yeah keep your L shaped wrenches for Ikea furniture. You want a rubberized T handle and push down when turning.
