Well, if they were the only ones that still made them.... why did he suddenly post that the company was just now "testing" their product?I'm not pissed that I didn't get a set, my auto's work fine for me & the way I use them.It just seems a bit conspicuous that, out of the blue; a rep would choose to post on this site & we all respond,drooling , for a set of free hubs.It seems that there may be hidden motives,or maybe I'm just paranoid. Again... I wasn't trying to offend,just a gut reaction.
If you take a look at the other forums on this site you will see that we also offered the same test to the Isuzu guys, early Toyota guys and the newer IFS Toyota guys. We are doing a cross the board change over and just needed some help form the guys who are in the dirt with there import rigs. Sorry you feel that something sneaky is going on here. The "nothing in life is free" statement is not always correct. As stated we are improving our line of products and were looking for real world input. At this time we are not doing the full blown testing but rather needing simple feedback. (1) person can supply what we are looking for. Also if you look at the billboards you will see that we also help sponsor this site. We are already adverstising but in the most honest way possible.. Not sure what else you could want from us? If I made some type of mistake in how I worded my first post than I'm sorry... But not sure why? How about this.... [color:"red"]Rugged Ridge is phasing out our fist Gen. locking hubs for Mitsu's and we need your help. We need (1) person for early development testing of a new design. We are needing simple fitment and function test done on early development samples of our Gen II hubs.[/color]
Look, I'm a wheeler like most of you and have been blessed with a Job that lets me play with this stuff most of the time. When I can give back I try to do so. Sorry you are that scared of companies and free interprise.
