Default Re: upgrading facilities pet peeve

Another example in the car vein is a tactic often used by car manufacturers to meet production quotas. They will leave parts off sometimes to get them out the factory doors with the plan that the dealership mechanics can finish the installation before selling it. In effect the car is a lower technology vehicle that's being upgraded later on.
