They did. And i agree, a thousand is a bit much, I'm sure it will come down, or at least be negotiable.Holy frijoles... talk about rare!

Seems a shame it's been taken out of the box, I hope they thought to do so carefully, and kept the box to include with the fridge.
Cylinder deactivation prematurely wears out lifters, piston rings, piston skirts, and cylinder walls.My problem is, the efficency requirements are mostly driven by the DOE. ALL they care about is how much energy it takes to do the job. Never mind the energy and other resources it will take to build and deliver the replacement when the thing fails after 5 years, instead of lasting 20. Same thing with cars. Turbos in nearly everything, stop-start "technology" in nearly everything. Awful combination, sure to kill the engine off in short order...
