Probably more of us would if they were actually worth something :)

Interestingly he mentioned " a taurus full of obsolete parts" which has been
my biggest frustration over the last few years.  I don't mind the occasional
repair, I don't mind the limited aftermarket parts vendors, and all the
other "crappy" things we put up with.  What I can't stand is when you go to
repair something having to either 1.) spend 2 hrs on the 'net and 3 on the
phone tracking down a part collecting dust in a warehouse somewhere  and/or
2.) eventually not finding it and spending a week at a local shop having
something fab'd up custom that costs 10x as much as it should.  In other
words, the time factor involved with locating or custom making a part from
an outside vendor.  This lets the air out of the balloon pretty quickly...
