    Just curious, would it be insane to buy the wilburs before I take delivery and have the dealer install em for me during make ready. I know it'd be in essence throwing a brand new stock shock away....but if it makes that much diffence of a ride, who wants to wait for em to wear out? And as...

    How insurance rates are based....

    I agree with most everything you said....however you need to be made aware of a couple of things ..... 1. Just because you talked the company out of charging you a late fee, you can bet your bottom dollar, they will still report it to the credit bureaus as a late payement..and payment...
