Donald, to get a group buy going your first best step is to contact the mftr and find out what terms such an acquisition could be constructed around.  Cost, qty, fright handling; those kinds of things.  Once you know that go down in to the "Group Buy" section of the website and offer those terms to the membership.  Good luck.

Donald, don't want to speak for Bushtec but I did ask Andrew Preston to come on to the site as a vendor last year.  But he said margins would not allow the required 10% discount to site members.  Give him a call and see if anything has changed since then.  I can tell you that right now is a great time to buy a trailer because Bushtec has winter specials to keep the factory working from now until about February I think it is.  You can get various options for free during this time.  Other manafacturers have have similar offers.

It has been a fun day!

620 miles round trip from Charlotte to BushTec and back.

I am very impressed with the people at BushTec.

Guess I have to be, I left my 09 SEUC with them to use to prototype their hitch for 09 S/E's.

But no fear, they are a first class outfit.

Thanks Jerry for the heads up on this!

Chip, I think you have made that trip twice now in a little over a month.   Any snow this time?

I was spose to go Monday but snow, me, 09SEUC and Mustang don't mix.
So we went today.
Craig (lil bear) rode with me and there were stretches on I-40 where you could see the salt residue.
You could see snow on the mountain tops but the roads were clear.
I asked Craig if he told Martha when we would be home. He said I told her 5:00, I know how you drive.
I picked him up at 7:00 AM went to BusTec, had lunch at a Mexican resturant and headed home.
We pulled into his driveway at 4:55!

Chip, glad you and Craig made it up and back safe and sound.  I agree, the folks at Bushtec are first class.  They are extended family to me.  As far as I am concerned they are simply THE best.

When do you get it back?

Did you order a new trailer while you were there? :nixweiss:

Dave

The hitch will go to the powder coater on Tuesday!
I can't speak for them but I would guess shipping would start before Christmas.
And for what it's worth, BushTec is a great company to deal with and work with.
Professional owners and professional employees and they deliver more than they promise!

Actually Dave, just call Andrew on Tuesday and ask him the date when shipping will begin.
