Ohhhhh... I didn't know that. I always steered clear of
them because they were pretty unreliable and I didn't
have the $$$ to keep repairing it.
I almost bought a new one but somehow the dealer fried
it starting it up. I figured if it was that easy to screw up
I'd better stay away from it. :)

Oh, I see, thanks for clearing that up.
