Not specifically, but they do appear to be pretty heavily into some less
than salubrious business practices of late, as shown by their complete lack
of action re their seemingly never-ending succession of buggy Sportsters,
as well as their outrageous pricing on Couriers, not to mention their
decision to charge Courier owners for the x2 upgrade when previous SDLs
have been free.
