Well, last night’s show just featured the usual multi-million dollar semi truck version RV's along with the show bus RV's. So it was off to Amish Mafia I went!! Not enough vintage for me. I can always go to a RV travel and boat show.

Only thing that bothers me is the CEO part. I thought my prices were high but Tim's must be astronomical. Maybe if I incorporate I can double my prices.

Why would the CEO part bother you? We do not base our prices on whether we are a LLC, Incorporation, Company, etc.... Our prices are based on the quality of our work. Our company motto is and always has been "Quality over Quantity"

I was wondering when you would see that Tim... Mobil has a since of humor so I take part of that as sarcasm and part as humor. I have never met either of you but comunicated with both over the web. I'm not knocking the quailty of work that either of you do. The LLC part is smart for lots of reasons. Call yourself whatever title you want. If you do the work right and take pride in it, which from what I know you both do, then thank you for putting these beautys back on the road. If you can fetch a premium price for your high quality work and long hours then more power to you! Most are still cheaper than the cold big white boxes new from a dealer. Mobil, if you have a restored 1950s 26'-29' Vagabond you want to part with for $21k let me know and I'll start packing. That's sarcasm! www.tincantourists.com/classified/showproduct.php?product=7513&title=1952-vagabond-262&cat=3#.UmCpuSoo4iQ

I was about to say that I guess the CEO certificate meant you had to trade in your sense of humor to get it! To any CEO's, SOB's, CBS's, NBC's, ABC's, LLC's and the like..... That was a joke too! (Hoosier Humor) Quote from the movie Stripes.......; "Lighten up Francis" I'm pretty sure mobiltec was just joking too.

I figured as much, but you would have no idea the kind of email I have received since the shows airing. Almost all have been great, but others have been very strange to a few claiming it must have all been for TV....no such shop, 'CEO' etc... I know I look very young (I am almost twice as old as most people think) but still young for restoring vintage trailers for as long as I have been doing it. As long as we all keep doing what we love and saving every trailer that can be saved! (going to look at a two story Pacemaker tomorrow....I want one soooo bad!!!)

Hey Tim, soup here, IMHO; It's not the age or the letters behind your name that impress me. It's your work (Me likie!) and that huge building your working in. LOL That and you have the good sense to be in an area that has a large amount of Rv's in the area around you (more per square mile in a 50 mile radius). Stay cool man! I think your seg was the best of the show. I hope to learn as much as you and mobiltec know before I have to stop working. I'm getting old timers and not sure how long I can go!

Tim As far as e-mails go any time you get in the public eye you will always uncover a few morons, that is why they put a delete key on your keyboard. I think you are awful also, awfully good at what you do and awfully lucky to be doing something you enjoy. Keep up the good work.

Hey Tim it was sarcasm. I don't know you from Adam so I could never judge you or your work. I keep telling people who want me to go big and be successful that I don't want to go big and be successful. I have to say that to at least one or two people a day in my email. I'm trying to retire LOL... They won't let me. Good thing I like the work as you obviously do. Keep it up and as a friend of mine who hiked 2500 miles on the Pacific Crest Trail said,,,, go BIG...
