Thankfully, because no decent Shovelhead should be treated like that.

Yech. That thing is an affront to the members of this forum. I say Bruce Montcombroux (if that's really his name) deserves some time off without pay for posting that fugly abortion and calling it a shovelhead lol.

"Individualism and freedom are core to a one-of-a-kind creation..." . Yeah, Finch is free to throw money away and waste time fabricating odious contraptions like that; that is true. Strange way to do business, but hey, if he wants to flush wads of cash down the toilet and alienate potential customers, go for it dude.
