Scottbeve …………………………….. I disagree with your Rant there old chap 😕
You’re entitled to disagree dude. The point I didn’t make or forgot to put to screen is that I’ve been on quite a few early serial numbered vehicles and quite a few types. Saying that, there are so many variables concerning the reliability of vehicles no matter what the brand. I can recall a particular vehicle manufacturer that had put in pre-planned obsolesence (such as the many different models of cars in the US during the late 60’s through to the late 70’s…), another manufacturer (to date) that has many different vehicles with a built in glitch (and CAN’T patch the problem…), another major player that has had a history of vehicles with GFD alrms all the time, and yet again – the job I’m on at the moment – 2 new vehicles: one has had 3 failures (not finger, etc. error) and the other vehicle with some program glitches and clunky failures. Both of different manufacturers.
Bottom line? What day was the vehicle made on? Monday or Friday? then don’t buy it!! QC is in place in practice but MAY not be enforced strictly due to time constraints and coinage. An increase of less experienced techs and an ROV manufacturing industry that is trying to meet it’s orders / delivery dates. You decide whether or not you want to hire a build manager whilst your vehicle is being built. It’s highly advisable.
