Never seen them before. Seem like a good idea just don't know if it would actually work. I guess we'll have to wait and see if anyone has one.

waste of money. Just go with cheapest option. And if cheap = dangerous. So be it, you need more danger in your life.

I wasn't saying it was cheap. I was saying when I go to buy "generic chunks of metal all built the same way" I find the cheapest is as good as any other.

I don't step foot in Walmart though.

I had one (still have it but it's rusted in tight) and when it wasn't rusted, it worked ok. Could tell a little difference driving down the road with less shock, but it wasn't noticable on starting or stopping like they claim.
