Hammerhead Out Of Business

I would think that just put the value of our dune buggies down a fair bit.  It was a shocker to me.  With 3 dune buggies, I was thinking of starting the "M&M Outdoor Adventures" in the spring, and getting a couple more, but Hammerhead is no more.  Still thinking of doing the outdoor adventures, cause it would be so much fun, but you would think finding parts now, would be very difficult.  Today I found THE guy that had the same problem, since May, and did something about it.  He lives in Edmonton, and it sounds like he dominates the world with his Hammerhead parts website.  Not only that, he sells any parts I could need, half the price that the dealers were selling them for.  Just the kind of  guy I want to be hanging out with, successful, and motivated.

So working on a business plan for dune buggy rentals, I don't really know how to test the market prior to setting up shop.  We really need to have at least 4 dune buggies, and transportation for them all to the sand dunes, before we can make any money.  I checked out the local rates, they were surprising.

	But then, on top of that, helmets $10, ramps $25 trailer $25 gas can $5 we wash $25 you wash $10 all per day Well now my borders are all messed up from cutting and pasting html from a website, no idea how to fix that, so thats just my thoughts of the day.  A little weekend plus self employment for next summer.  Another website to make, and business to market.  I just have to decide for sure and commit, then buy a couple of used units, until buddy brings in new ones, which may be never.   He is checking prices for me.  If he can get them for half price of what the dealers were selling them for, woo hoo.  But most of the buggies are the same, he said rite now, anyone can order a seacan of 30 buggies, from china, and brand them whatever they want.  Malcolm Buggies for example.  But there is a quality difference, Hammerheads are pretty nice.
