Kevmic, jump online and log onto SEMA and find your local SAN Rep and let them know the name of the place and the address. SEMA and the SAN Network are there to help in matters just like this. What they're doing is nothing short of attempted robbery. The owner knows damn good and well our trucks never will require a Cat.
