finally broke something

[Buckeye Hummer]

Not really an inside source but I did meet with two guys at Team Hummer who spoke to the engineers in Indiana (they went for training). The tie rod issue came up and the engineers specifically said that they are aware they are breaking, they are not making HD ones in the near future and the reasoning is that the damage goes deeper and costs more money if the tie rod is improved. This is consistent with my father's thoughts (33 year retiree from GM (Fisher Body) who said the same thing. They will try to minimize the damage by having a part that is easy to change out and cheap.

It's business!
