Ditto!

Just got off the phone with Marcel and he said the 05 skids will be available for order around the middle of Aug. However, he did say that he would be raising prices so that people don't think they are getting a cheap product.

I got mine today...

can't wait to put them on...

top quality! you won't be disappointed... unless you were expecting them to be free!!

If they are missing some of the things that Aero Steve pointed out then by compairson to the amount of work being put into them they are getting a "cheaper" product.

OK that was a bit mean of me :p

Sorry Kevin.

I didn't miss anything. However, it is nice there is competition and I believe someone said that that was the beta of the skid and it wasn't fully installed. Correct me if I am wrong.

And as someone said why would you put an image of a work in progress that has a bunch of problems with it? Especially if you are running a business selling parts that are suppose to protect your truck.

Blah, fucking-blah-blah-blah...

Haha, Too funny. Probably like several people on this Forum.

That is great.

See. Carlton's not a complete hard ass, he even knows how to apologize.

(Bastard )

I just had visions of the newer Pathfinders floating in my head and as Andy and a few others pointed out there are plenty of the older Pathfinders that actually wheel.

Boot to the head.

Nice pic DBAX very fitting to the thread. Thanks you made me chuckle!

I proudly serve this country and I am grateful to those who appreciate why we do it. So for That I thank you.

define "newer"

is this what you mean by newer?

A 1997 Pathfinder was not what I had in mind.

But thanks for the pics. I bet Kevin loves to see that.

Edit to add:

I don't see anything past Oct 2003. What has he been doing lately? With the list of places he has been I am suprized he has not made it to Moab.

WOW, amazing when reading all 7 pages it becomes very evident,

Calmi...I mean Carlton, Have you been a dickhead all your life or did you work at it?.

It is evident that ANY effort to create something Unique, affordable and perhaps just as good as the the Sponsors of everything mounted on a certain white Xterra, is chopped down,shut down and ridiculed without doing ANY proper research or even listen to the people partaking in this project. What a brilliant way to drive your membership (all 123 active posters) away.

Congratulations, on continuing to alienate the members that drive your Sponsorship for XOC. I am sure Ian would be proud.

He's been wheelin, his recent pics just aren't easily found on his site.

BTW, you met Dean (XPLORX4) at goneMOAB 03 I guess you just don't remember...

Ohh.. I think I have some pics of him then. Too many people at some of these events that I loose track.

Yup.. Found one.

Wow. Kind of harsh but, after owning a Toyota pickup for 12 years and enjoying the large number of performance parts producers that were available. I have to agree. I'd hate to see possible producers of Xterra performance parts turned away on this, obviously the nucleus of the Xterra community.

The last guy's sig is the best part of this thread..

I propose that you re-instate Marcel's account...

if you continue to shut down people like this, its just going to be more reason for guys like skidrow to continue gouging their customers... they are getting rich because they are the only ones who are known... kind of a monopoly situation you are aiding here... why do you think parts for Jeeps are so cheap and Nissan so expensive? because there are so many suppliers for them, and this board is working against new suppliers starting up!!

time to drop the negative feelings you have, and get on with your life.

There are advertisers here on XOC and to give a business free access to the member base that another business is paying for would not be fair. I offered him a way to get exposure and he denied it. Nothing to see here. Move on.

I do not care if members here talk about product X,Y or Z but I will not let a vendor come here and sell their wares in an unfair way to those that support this board.

As for my opinions of the BP product. They are my opinions and are based on what I saw on the website and compaired to other skidplate vendors products.

I think you need to show us the links where he was selling his stuff...

remember, he did not start this thread. if he comes here to answer questions, that should be allowed...

I need to show you nothing.

Ask him, he knows.
