This thread ends in a story about the Cardone Motors.

Plus - You can change the gears very easily.
Minus - The electrical connectors are horrible and will rust on you quickly. (Assuming Cardone hasn't fixed the problem yet.)

If the Cardone motors coming out of the factory today are like the ones I purchased, I'd recommend staying away from them!
