Just saw this thread's title....do I need to read all 6 pages?

I think I know what the outcome will be!

DR never backorders the KY Jelly when he "ships your complete order"....

What, no credit for the motivation I gave you for that?

Sorry Marty, my lunch break was just ending and I posted it real quick. Mazel tov to Marty O for motivating me to think of it and then he vowed to steal it..

A little word of advice....use the BBB website but most importantly, follow up with the BBB. There are three complainants that BBB never heard back from and closed the complaint.

DR is not registered with BBB and his rating is a D.

His website states that he is lol

He also must have some drones, because the BBB shows 5 positive and nada negative experiences. I saw it on the internet, it must be true. Those with bad experiences need to contact the BBB.

I concur.

HI DENNIS!!!

I've read so, so many threads all leading to the same question in my mind: how is this person NOT brought up on criminal charges
not looking for a public forum reply, it just amazes me.....

Think about it, 950 miles away from DR. Four owners of company's that worked on my car were willing to testify against him, one in Ohio & three in NJ. Time away from their work ($$$), fly them to Fl.( $$$), rooms & food ($$$). Case gets continued, fly all home, nothing gained but spent a lot of money. When is it not worth it & he knows what he is doing. On the bright side out of something bad (DR) came something good thanks to the good people on this site. I have a 10 second MM & I am very happy. That's somthing DR can't take away nor could he ever build one. HI Dennis

Some things are better done that said.

Agreed....

Every time DR gets mentioned, I can't help but think of the old movie title.

As a reminder, I had the white 2000 Grand Marquis with the DOHC swap done about Sept 2007.

The Good:
DR seemed genuine with every dealing I had with him. Even went so far as to lend me his car for about two months while he took longer to finish mine than stated. I felt bad when he described how some on the internet were bashing his reputation and meddling with his livelihood. He almost seemed to treat me and my car with the hope that if he did it right, he could be somewhat vindicated of previous negative claims.

There were issues, specifics are not worth mentioning since they were minor compared to what I read others had experienced. He did seem to make a good effort addressing each as they came up. Each issue took longer than I thought it should, but I know I wasn't his only customer.

The end result of my car seemed reasonable. I had six good years of usage with minimal issues. I could of had more years if I didn't wipe out on a patch of ice.

The Bad:
I did not read about him before taking my car to him. I got a friendly "notice" about him, but I was too naive to catch on to it. Unfortunately, it was after the ball was rolling. I never spoke about the issues that I had during the car mod. I dismissed it and took it as being normal for modding, but suspected much worse. I could be specific, but it wouldn't do well other than bashing after the fact.

From observation, it would seem that he was very disorganized. Perhaps this is why he has issues with shipping?

The Ugly
More serious though, I was hoping the best for DR ever since I dealt with him. Sounds like it didn't work out very well. "The ugly" being all the negative that you can read about him online.

Personally, it is all water under the bridge. The only reason I'm mentioning this now is to say "Research the business that you are considering doing business with beforehand!"
