Although that quote attributed to PT was supposedly NEVER uttered by the man himself, I suspect he was referring to a certain Mt. Prospect resident.

That's nice, Terrencita. You are forgetting two things: 1) Your barking at the wrong tree. I am NOT the seller. 2) Your vehicle is worth less than the sum of it's parts. The archives is chockfull of postings to support this. Heck, I bought a nice running Westy before for $100. Much less than the price of dual battery system, Westy upper bunk step, and highwattage taillights.

Do you suggest people do not buy any of the items you sell because they can buy a complete Westy for much less? No? I didn't think so.

I rest my case.
