Do you know my Employer or do you work at a Bank and see my Electronic Transfers from Swepco? We sure have a lot of Volvo Sales Reps on this Site it looks like!
:roll: You have posted several times (Where) about supplying (Recommending) Swepco products to customers (Friends) (. So again and to set the record straight, can you please just be direct? Do you sell Swepco or not? ((NO, I am not on their payroll nor do I sell Swepco for a living. Those that want to use it go the same Rep I use and buy direct from him and I do not get anything in return not even a bottle as a thank you. But those that have used it do THANK ME :wink: ))

I know this is an Election year but let's not let that Spirit cross into our Forum with "Garbage Info and Boutique Oil" If Independent Volvo with a Great Yelp reputation and all those fine websites I posted are "Boutique" along with UPS and FedEx then so be it "Garbage" they use.

Thank you!

Yes, a small Volvo repair shop that serves a local area and does fine work, fits almost perfectly the definition of boutique. The term is not at all derogatory.
