[Rhodes22-list] Triad Trailers

[stan]

Trailer buyers:

Please Note:

We are against Triad quoting prices on our trailers or selling them to any 
of our owners.  We spent a lot of time and money developing our design and 
if Triad quotes our prices or in anyway sells our trailers to Rhodes owners, 
we will no longer use Triad as our supplier.

In turn, if any Rhodes owner bypasses GB in obtaining a trailer for a 
Rhodes, we will no longer feel any obligation to consider that owner as part 
of the Rhodes family that we go out of our way to help.

If this seems harsh to anyone, try meeting a payroll every week year round 
regardless of the ups and downs in this economy.   If you buy the Oil 
companies logic for their pricing, you should certainly appreciate ours.
