My livelihood is provided by fixing these cars, and believe it or not, I make an "honest" living doing it. I would say with the hundreds of thousands of dollars I have invested in my business, I care a little bit about SAABs survival... but can I doing anything about it? No. I've spoken to Lennart Stahl at SAAB Parts AB personally on the phone. I've spoken to Charles Toosey personally on the phone. I've spoken to Tim Colbeck personally on the phone. You know what they've told me? We're working on it. Who am I to interrupt professionals in their trade?

You make it sound like I drug this guys broken down car in to my shop and gave him no alternatives to fix it other than my marginally marked up part. You both called me. I just said that I had what you were looking for.

Sorry if you don't like being charged more money for parts than what you used to have to pay. If you want a SAAB shop to still be around next year to take your car to, you're going to have to get used to it.
