This is like being optimistic about RV manufacturers (heh). Van’s has been thinking that pandemic surge demand would last forever, and now they’re stuck overextended, blowing money on garbage parts they need to replace across the fleet. You can only do so many things at once, and they’re figuring that out the hard way. Would have been better to just ride the wave, and maybe try to outsource to other manufacturers stateside who could actually maintain QC.
Hobbyist companies like this are sad, because they don’t like “fleecing” customers, but sometimes you got to meet demand w/ a price increase.
