Bosch spark plug wires...crap?

Well, after spending months sorting out spark plug issues on my old
100Q years ago, I came to the conclusion that Bosch is the *only* way
to go. I've heard some people lately griping about Bosch, and don't
understand why. They are the OEM wires, made exactly to spec, and
have always lasted a long time for me.
