Official, Wanderlodge is closed

[david brady]

Ahh, allow me to translate:



1) They didn't fail, the bankers just pulled the rug out from under

'em,



2) Macy was truly trying to build a motorhome, and



3) vintage bus owner's are a PITA and will never buy one of your

new products!

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.
