RIV Report?

[bbwlwb88]

Rick, CCW's rep at the rally in Branson, told rally attendees that
Bleakley, Holland, and Parliament are no longer dealers. He
indicated the factory wanted to start with new dealers bacause of the
past history with current dealers. Rick indicated thay had decided
that a fresh start with new dealers would provide a more positive
approach to reestablishing Blue Bird as a premier product. He said
that CCW has a new large dealer on the west coast and I believe the
name of the dealer was Giant RV. He added that CCW is negotiating
with several new dealers who are expected to be on board within the
next few months.

The 2 new birds they displayed at the rally were, in my opinion,
clearly a step up from previous Birds in terms of exterior and
interior appearance and quality. The interiors are really
outstanding! These new coaches definitely represent a challenge to
Prevost conversions if CCW can get develop great dealers and a
stronger marketing program. Riok said the suggested retail price on
these 2 coaches was about $1.1 million.
