Aftermarket, that’s the polite way of saying pirate. My company fights pirates all the time. Sure the parts are cheaper but if you call me for tech support, the first thing I do is look up your account, if you aren’t buying from us, enjoy your cheap part and broke machine.
Bad attitude, Wally. I spent more than a few years in the biz, Ford dealerships and the aftermarket as well. Parts sales are a big part of dealer income and buying parts from a dealer gets expensive real quick.
So, up yours.
