I'm in. 

Randy, it may help if you explain the significance of you acquiring this business since it is more than simply growing your existing business

Yeah right.  That's 'cos all the money will still be in your back pocket.

FJ's and XJR's are on their last legs.

You're just like Doc at FJOC.

I'll never buy anything off you or him again.
This guy has done this before at least once. It's one thing to disagree with someone else's opinion but he insults them personally. Calling in to question there integrity. I am tired of him insulting Randy (this is the second time that I know of) and Pat in a previous post about the valve shim kit. I have conferred with Pat a number of times over PM and done business with Randy as well as spoken with him over the phone. This year I had the opportunity to meet these fine gentlemen in person at the WCR. You will not find two better representatives for the FJ community. Maybe we need a three strike rule?

The votes speak volumes over the dissent. This forum tends to self moderate quite well. When it is clear that any individual fails to get the message, we simply need not respond further. Nuff said....

I had a look through his posts and they seem fine, quite positive in many cases. That said, I didn't see any relating to RPM or FJOC (UK) but in the main they seem normal..

It would be good to know why someone has an issue with purveyors of FJ parts. For sure, I could have a bit of a moan about the UK FJOC, but RPM have been good with me, and I appreciate the fact Randy offers FJ parts that others don't (even though my funds don't stretch to my RPM wishlist..). The dealings I have had have been absolutely fine, and long may he continue.

I'm not sure 3 strikes is fair, because all views are valid whether we agree or not, though it would be nice to have more details of any issues, rather than blanket statements rubbishing spares retailers / FJ experts.

Anyway, the sun is shining here in England, a rare occasion recently..!  :good2:

Persistant

Voted! I'm in.  I have had nothing but good experiences with Randy and RPM.  Keep up the good work!

Calling out someone's integrity without providing any reason for that opinion, shows a serious lack of character in yourself.

If the comment is directed towards what Randy is trying to accomplish, why don't you do the community a service and please elaborate as to why you think he is being 'dishonorable'.  You may have a valid issue, which could then be discussed.  Personally, I can't see an ethical problem with what Randy is doing.  Is there a risk?  Of course there is; but for me it's a risk of the business failing and not being able to use my coupon code, not Randy's character.

To be honest, I voted 'No' in the poll.  Not because I don't believe in what Randy is trying to do, but because ever since I sold the FJ, Randy doesn't really have anything that I need or can use.  Sadly, no matter how much I want to help Randy achieve his goal, I just can't afford to tie up $100.00 in a coupon I may never be able to use.

Fj111200,

If you don't want to contribute/ invest in the longevity of our beloved FJ then don't. But do not attack the integrity of the person whom by far has, and continues to provide superior support to keeping our steeds
Rolling. You can just FUCK OFF. Don't go away mad, just go away.

Randy has been easy to deal with for me and could not be more helpful.  Works for me........ :drinks:
