  1. Interesting lil unit. I would try to make it as physically small as possible. The proto is as big as a portable o-scope. If it fell in the "under $100" range, I would probably buy one. Anything more than that, and I would get a "cheap" o-scope (around $120).

    For me personally, portability and cost are the two defining factors. Keep it simple, no bling.....it is a tool. It doesn't need to be fancy when only pulled out for 15-20 mins. It just needs to do the job, and do it right.

    Other than that....decent concept. Hope it becomes a "must have" in an installers toolbox.

  2. In moving to the midsize company, you are going to have hiccups, and there are bound to be orders missed, or shipments gone a wry, but the customer needs to understand that there will soon be seperation from "chruch and state" if you will, and that will inevitable bring a superior product to the consumer. Staying in touch with the needs and wants of the consumer is great (reading and responding on forums), but direct orders will soon be a thing of the past.

  3. Also, what I am seeing here is the manufacturer dealing with the public direct. The public should be dealing with the retailers. Questions should be fielded by dealers. I believe Sundown is currently in that "inbetween" stage. Where they are not big enough to just be a manufacturer, and they are not small enough to be able to offer the 1 on 1 service like before.

    Many companies do fail at this point in time, because they cannot make the step into the full blown manufacturing part of things. They still have their "buddies" from when they were "retailing" out the back door. As a manufacturer, at some point you have to sever ties with the general population, and focus on current product, and future product demands.

  4. Are y'all on crack.....

    Just use the liner straight up. It doesn't matter if it goes hard. It is not going to crack on moving panels. I bet none of you run trucks with a real bedliner in it? We throw heave ass shit in out trucks, heavy enough to dent the floor of the box, drag stuff out of the box, and 90% of liners hold up no questions asked. So if you think a little vibration from your system is going to make it flake off.....think again.
