I'm surprised they closed, thought the building/land purchase was to service epa compliancy market and WL was just a perk. The free TV give away to retro owners was the first sign of marketing in unknown territory. Give a set of golf clubs to a fleet manager and FM buys 15 engine repowers for the Company or transit agency he works for.. Give a TV to Vintage bus owner and they ask for an extra remote.
