Yep - very sad. I'm sure MVM is/was plenty busy and doing okay, but I pulled up to the dock last summer to see if someone could look at the steering in my 2006 Horizon. When I walked up, almost nobody was working and there were 10+ guys sitting around, maybe on lunch break. Regardless, nobody would look at the boat and I didn't have leverage to say it was purchased there since it wasn't. Definitely was not a busy day and it was a weekday. Not a big deal, just shocked that was the protocol as opposed to trying to make money. Is what it is, I wasn't offended but just a different way of doing business.
