Never make it hard for your customer to find you.
Never confuse your customer.

Another thought.... what does the name tell me about your business?
Does "trü6" convey a mental image of porsche parts and lighting?

You make some good points here. Will have to consider them. Glad I've purchased every permutation of URL I can. Not sure why the squatter hasn't replied. Maybe he's waiting for the second email to gauge desperation. Who knows.

In terms of the last one though, again, my reply is "Pelican Parts."

One more thing, this company will be small and personal. I won't be advertising in Pano anytime soon.
