The same goes here, the days of the gyppo logger are all but gone. They just can't compete with the big outfits with machines. I'll be honest here as well, I would hazard to guess that I can not see a reason to ever buy one of your new kits, not because I don't like it, but because I'll never see a saw of that size to put it on, they just aren't here in this area much to speak of. The few that are around sit in a corner of a shop and rarely get used at all. Let alone trying to sell someone on an upgrade for something they do not use, to them it works good enough when they do need it, as it is.
That being said there is a ton of saws around. When I engage the pea in head and think about it, most folks are pretty happy with their smaller pro saws that they do use. This is where I believe we're missing the boat so to speak. What saws are out there in massive numbers and could actually benefit from a power upgrade the most? It's not the pro saws at all, it's the farm/ranch saws. Figure out a way to make an affordable upgrade kit for this class of saw, the world will beat a path to your door. I can open any garage or shop door around here and see a MS290 or a 455 Rancher. I could sell the bajeezers out of something like that.
Any who, I'll dis-engage my pea now, carry on!
