Re: I Hate UPS
i refuse to have anything shipped with UPS. Their brokerage fees border on theft. they charged us over $40 on a $100 purchase!?!
F&ck UPS!!!

Re: I Hate UPS
This is the truth, for me it's USPS or nothing coming from the US. I know USPS won't ship larger items but I dealt with UPS before and it was enough to push me away for good. It may not be as bad on a larger purchase like yours but mine was smaller similar to medic's and my brokerage was even higher. Bought something less than half price in the US and had it shipped via UPS and the end cost was pretty much exactly what it would have cost me to go to the store and get it, except I had to wait a week.medic wrote:i refuse to have anything shipped with UPS.

I haven't dealt with FedEX before, I hear they're marginally better.
Good luck with the brokerage. Better get the lube out just to be prepared
I used this site to determine the difference between picking up my exhaust in NY vs having it shipped to my door. You can use this to predict your brokerage charge if you want to ruin the surprise.

Re: I Hate UPS
I like it. The upgrade in wheel travel and ride is pretty amazing. I felt it is worth the money.Nismojunky wrote:I was looking at that extended travel package how did u like it is it worth the money???
The thing with Greg is that he has so many more options than what is shown on the website. I worked with him over the phone and dialed it in with what I was doing with the truck. Since it was my daily driver I still wanted it to be road friendly, but able to do more if called upon.

This is where I am now, with SAWS instead of Radlos. I find the SAWS are too stiff, how do like the Radflos?SLRX wrote:Cool. Glad you used PRG. Greg is a good guy....... I did the extended travel setup with radflo coilovers on my 07 Titan.

Re: I Hate UPS
I was surprised by the Radflos. I do like them. I am actually getting the Radflo Emulsion shocks for the rear of the X in the next couple of weeks as well.
