Re: [VAL] Shirley's Factory Tour Pictures



Simple.  Promoting the vintage trailers -- as well as TV exposure on even 
tasteless shows such as "Simple Life 2" -- contributes to the cult popularity 
of the a/s.  The momentum of that cult popularity drives the sales of new 
vehicles.

Personal experience: I love my own vintage coach, and I recommend the 
"Beatrice" coaches every chance I get.  However, most of the people I have 
talked to (for example, physician colleagues) went out and bought new coaches 
-- which they would not have done without my vintage sales pitch.  Most 
people don't want the hassles of restoration/remodeling.
