USCG.... I agree with you on that one. So are you or Johnparts buying one from Tshell? If so, then why not post your price or price range for your set up. If not then I guess we can all just speculate until a point when he sells one.
I am personally going with an RMS unit, most likely piece by piece to spread the cost over time. Why? Other than the cost you do not see anyone complaining about quality, how it performs, or Bill's customer service but that is my personal choice route.
So there is no need for me to waste Tshell's time quoting a frame that I wouldn't end up buying.
This threads speculation of pricing can crash and burn a good product if it does not live up to the speculation of its cost, hence why I suspect that most folks who build a frame for themselves will not build more for resale.
My guess is it will not be as cheap as the Mustang stuff.... if it is then Tory or who ever pulls it off will be rolling in money with orders in no time at all.
