Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Show of support for Complete Coach Works
Hi Royal I guess I am just holding my breath that everything will turn out
good.Before when Blue Bird was sold off it look like bean counters just wanted
to make a fast buck and get out.This time it looks like it was bought
for the right reason to continue to build the best rv's on the market.
I do plan on attending the RIV.

I am somewhat surprised at the lack of comments and questions from
forum members about the purchase of Wanderlodge Division. I
understand that, to many, this is just another sale to another
company and we have all seen this before. This is not just another
sale of the company. The company who purchased Wanderlodge separated
Wanderlodge from Blue Bird and will concentrate on Wanderlodge.
Complete Coach Works is a privately held company who has made a
substantial investment in the future of Wanderlodge. These folks
know buses, they are well funded, and they are enthusiastic about
rebuilding Wanderlodge. If the sale had not taken place we probably
would have received an announcement advising us that production of
Wanderlodge coaches would cease. Basically production had actually
ceased with the 2006 coach. Only a handful of 2007 models were
produced.

I urge you to show support for Complete Coach Works in their efforts
to revive Wanderlodge. You can send an email to Macy Neshati, Vice
President, Sales and Marketing for Complete Coach Works At
macy@.... They have indicated they will be at upcoming
rallies to meet and talk with coach owners, dealers, and employees.
It means that our Wanderlodge resale values have a better chance of
holding up and that parts availability will be improved. These folks
are enthusiastic and Wanderlodge employees are excited about what
they have heard from CCW management.

The best way for Wanderlodge owners to show our support would be to
make plans to show up for the 2007 Rally In The Valley which will be
held 10/28/07 through 11/01/07. Information will be coming soon I'm
told. A big turn out would send a strong message of our support. I
will be there.
