George has an offsite warehouse outside of the flood zone...

Can you imagine George not doing what he is doing? Naw.

Good point!

I last talked to him just as the remnants of Katrina were dumping serious water on Philly . I needed a rebuilt transfer case for an '02 Rangie HSE (or it was right around an '02, I don't remember), and he was the only one who was rebuilding them at the time. He told me he was going to walk away from the mess (no flood insurance) and retire to Florida (where they don't have hurricanes, y'know).

I'm glad to hear he's still in business. He was always good for that impossible-to-find part that was keeping the customer's truck from running right. Not to mention occasional pithy advice. I'm sure I'll be calling him sooner or later for bits for my rig.

"I am not running a rover junk yard" - George.

He's a vendor. He sells new parts. That's what he wants to do.

If your a good customer, he'll go out of his way for you.

I guess I 've gotten everyone pissed off now...........
I DIDN'T know he was a vendor, that he sold NEW parts.
The previous posts led me to think that he was just a Rover Rider that had a set of nice wings for sale & and a few xtra parts........Sorry if I offended anyone...just did not know...

Heh, I'M not PO'ed, and I don't think it was mentioned specifically that he's a vendor. Lots of us happen to have dealt with him, or know him pretty well. You have to know George to understand. He can be somewhat... crusty... with folks who don't know what they're talking about, or who call and waste his time. If he knows that you know what you want and what you're about, he'll usually bend over backwards to help you. His company is Rovers Down South - give him a call if you can't find what you need from our gracious hosts.
