Oh, and prices will come down on the back side of all of this… I dunno.
2007-8 the big pickup truck and boat industry exploded.
A few smaller production boat brand survived, a spattering of the big brands came out the other end… lower prices? Hell no. They took existing models, loaded them up with excess gizmos, luxuries (on fishing boats none the less) - cut production and jacked prices thru the roof. Instead of extracting a little from many, they extracted more from few.
Trucks - unsustainable prices in 2006 right? They failed and then said - hold my beer and watch this. Essentially doubled the prices by putting more gizmos on the trucks and offer longer term financing.
if our sector of bikes pops, and it probably will - I expect the same on the back side.
