Compile a list of BUDS owners who are willing to help, by location?

[Columbia]

So far I've managed to avoid the (lousy) dealer nearest to me. I haven't had to use BUDS, either.
Got me thinking: is there a list anywhere of those members of SL who own BUDS software/hardware and are willing to help us non-owners out?
I would gladly pay for the privilege. Not a fortune, though!
A geographical listing, perhaps by state and then by town or county, would seem to me to be all we'd need. Maybe written as the message header for easy scanning/searching. (e.g. Washington, Seattle or Washington, Spokane) Those willing could be contacted through SpyderLovers using PMs.

Your thoughts?

I have BUDS 1 and I'm in Central VA, Bedford County.

I'm glad to help out anyone in the area whenever I can.

I'll keep you in mind, @Cobranut

I have BUDS with the Mechatronic license. I'm in York, SC and charge $50 for a BUDS evaluation (which could include DESS disabling). The $50 helps to offset the cost of the equipment and license.

I think this is a good thing.
So all you Spyder Forum Members with BUDS,
let us know if you are willing to help.

Calling all 'BUDS Owners'...

Thanks for Looking.

Just curious if there are any more BUDS.
Still hoping for a few more players
Let us know.
Thanks for Looking.

I believe that there are now BUDS1, BUDS2, and BUDS 3 versions. I know they needed BUDS2 or at least the BUDS2 USB cable to update the display on my 2018 RTL.

I have BUDS2.
Only it is in the Netherlands.
I Will help everyone.
Greetings, Adrie

Is there anyone in Tucson Arizona area that has BUDS2 or 3, besides a dealership that would help a fellow spyder lover? Thanx Rhino

I'm in Yuma through the weekend. (If you need BUDS, you're likely not mobile, so I may as well be in Florida.) That stated, I have BUDS/BUDS2 with the standard license. My skills are modest, with a lot of reference to the manuals. What do you need help with? Year. Model. Problem.

I have a 2014 RT. It has a rough idle at times. It only has 11,500 miles on it. I’m wondering if it’s something electrical. It runs fine other than rough idle when starting off. I call a dealer, they want $165.00 just to hook it up. That’s ridiculous! Thanx
