I'm still alive, but the business isn't. I had hoped that I'd found a niche business that would grow rapidly enough so that I could transition into it and kiss the big corporate world goodbye!
Unfortunately, the costs (both money and time) began rising too quickly for my comfort - so I had to either go-for-broke or cut bait ... with 2 young kids (9 and 12 yr old girls), I felt that I'd rather invest my time in raising them than in chasing this dream - at this point. Figure that there will be other business opportunities in the future, but I only get 1 shot at being their Dad.
As far as former competition that I'd recommend, try www.hitch-web.com ... they seemed to have pretty good prices and service.
Norm, I was in SoCal again a few weeks ago and thought about looking you up ... problem is that it isn't until about 5 minutes before it happens that I find out that I have any free time. Next time I'll see if I can schedule some free time in advance so that I can come see the progress on your truck!
Thanks,
Ken C.
