Motor Homes
Leroy. What BB needs to do is look at the past. Not every one needs
or can afford these rolling palaces. I happened to see parked an
early seventies Champion motorhome. I had to chuckle at that thing
but you know if I had a choice between nothing and a step back I'd
take a step back and be glad to do so rather then sitting home. But
I don't want an unsafe over loaded piece of plastic either. Maybe we
are not representative of the RV market. Like I said the other day
Sex sells and maybe my idea's aren't sexy enough for todays market.

it is still less expensive to go play than doing it another way, we
just do shorter trips. As well after the shake out of all
manufacturers is complete, with some luck and crafty business
decisions, CCW's purchase of BB may turn out to be a brilliant
business decision. They are in the process of positioning themselves
on top of the power which will allow them to explode out of the gate
with a quality product when the market returns, returning BB to
prominence. If they decide to add a quality 36'-38' side entry look
out. They have a shot at capturing a good portion of the mid to high
end market. Add the refurbishment division, the service division and
parts division and support for older Birds and we all will be better
off it they are successful. A company positioning themselves for the
future while others are downsizing or going out of business is a
great formula. It is said, "when one door closes another
> opens." Our decision to own a Bird will make all of us look
brilliant. It is tough to make me look that way!
