    Ummm, wanna buy an exhaust?

    He probably doesn't realize that Alberta is Texas-Lite and a ton of us have guns too. :)

    Correct me if I am wrong, but aren’t you the person who gave Casey credit for coming through after 8 months?

    8 MONTHS??!??!!!?!?

    What’s the chances he even has a passport?

    He hasn't completed his application yet. He’s getting close though.

    Before this thread dies out, I just want to thank everyone for letting me participate.
    I have no dog in this fight but I have enjoyed being a part of the conversation.

    This asshole may live in Texas, but I don't feel he is the norm around here.
    Unfortunately he and another member became over run in their ventures for side jobs and both happened to live in our great State.
    Both handled the situation poorly, although Casey the Tig guy went above and beyond on being a dick.

    The other member was selling cat plates and I did get mine, although it was quite a struggle.
    We did learn from the experience.

    Thanks..

    the story behind the blurred google street view from what he told me was his wife was being harrassed by one of his customers. Which is also why he uses a random return address. The kicker to this is that he uses his wife’s PayPal to receive funds. Should’ve been a red flag from the start.

    He’s not from Texas. Just a transplant from the Midwest. The way he talks in his videos has miidwest vibes.

    I wonder how the sound would have been with my bigger hemoltz. I wish I had your muffler size. The one I got seems small which would make sense of the drone I was getting. Definitely got a lot more turbo noise.[/QUOTE]
    What’s funny is that this is a much smaller muffler than what was in his original product. The Helmholtz resonator looks bigger, but the can is definitely smaller and likely louder.

    Oh, my. That’s quite the video he put together there. Let’s check his math.

    Out of the ~80 systems he’s made, only about 2 have owners been happy. Thats like 99% success.

    Those are his words.


    Let’s break this down, since he’s reportedly a glowing ember in the corner around these parts.

    2 out of 80 are mad. First, where are the 78 on here that are happy?!?

    2/80 = 1/40 = 0.25/10 = 0.025/1.

    I’m not a smart man, but it appears that his bullshit math is about as bad as his bullshit business model.

    Lies on lies on lies on lies.

    interesting: so if he told you that story and the pearland texas address is his address, is his name really Casey or is it DAVID COOPRIDER
    or possibly his ex-wife's address and not his at all. :monocle:

    who knows what is true now. He’s proven to be a liar. I wouldn’t be surprised is he’s Cooprider’s cuck at this point.

    I enjoy in his video that he says "if you don't like this system, that's on you. we can't satisfy everyone." and I have to laugh because enter Keith and his lifetime warranty, including sound warranty.

    The 3:12 mark is the perfect sound clip, too.

    I also hate the fact that he mentioned Tundras.com @ the 4:47. Douche move. He's banned but still offering it up as a place to sell the product he refuses to stand behind. I guess it's good that he only went after Carven and didn't mention anyone else producing exhausts?

    We don't/won't claim him either.

    East coast doesn't want him. Maybe Mexico will take him.

    In keeping with formal processes, there are methods available to anyone who sees that video to help address it.

    Then he wouldn't have to pump his own gas..:eek2:

    Funny, my wife and I met a New Jersey couple at a resort years ago.
    Sitting in the pool having a drink, just a little chit chat conversation.

    The conversation turned to firearms, and he ranted and raved about how no one needs to own more than one gun.
    My wife and I looked at each other and giggled.
    I didn't agree with him, but it wasn't worth an argument.
    He asked me how many I owned and I told him more than one..:thumbsup:

    He probably thinks there's a limit on ammo ppl can own too. 1 firearm = no more than 10 rounds

    That's my standard answer to that question also.
    (When it isn't: what guns? Terrible boating accident, blah, blah.)

    I think we probably see this the same way and reading through this thread just made me sad.
