I will be the first to admit that I've done some pretty sleazy things in my
life, but writing ad copy isn't one of them.

Make up your mind, dude. I was responding to what was in the DML post which
read "Get maximum
control and stopping power with optional four-wheel antilock disc brakes".
This was purported to be in both the 98 and 99 catalogues. My point, and I
stand by it, is that you (or anyone) interprets that to mean "4-wheel disc
brakes" at your own peril.

You're missing the point, When you ask "How is one..." you're talking about
normal rational people. These ads were written by scum who are out to get
your money and will do or say anything to get it. I don't blame you for
feeling deceived by these ads, but don't take it out on me just because you
were had. I tried to advise you that this is the way the world works. If
you don't want to heed my advise, that's OK by me. If you're looking to
argue about how deceptive this is, look elsewhere. I had to learn my
lessons the hard way, I guess you will too.
