I have been watching the numbers of members rise steadily from less than 1000 since I joined around March 2013 to 2167 a few minutes ago when I last checked. It got me figuring that this is a huge and profitable business. If you will forgive the rubbery numbers on the assumptions of current values and take it in the spirit of which these numbers are meant, then based on the purchase price of the van, any van, to be around $50K on average, then 2167 x 50,000= $108,350,000.
That is a staggering amount of money and only includes our members and not the many perhaps thousands of Expanda owners that are out there blissfully unaware of this site. Add the other Jayco models in the range to these figures and the numbers rise further.
With all this money going into Mr. Jayco's hands, then why doesn't he spend a little on some simplistic R and D to stop my drawers and cupboard's 10c screws from coming loose causing me to have to constantly check them all to prevent them falling to bits? Just a thought...............
