WSJ Look at the Sprinter based Airstrream

Not 4wd of course, but fun to think about. Dan Neil wasn't very impressed.

This is a highly profitable vehicle. Indeed, too much profit has been extracted from this product and somebody needs to challenge management on it. Allow me.

Thanks for the link, Thom. You're right; not too good for Airstream. The RV industry as a whole often seems to disappoint. He seemed to like the underlying Sprinter well enough, though.

That was a fun read, thanks.

I worked for companies like that where I'd bring things up and no one "upstairs" wants to change it for the better (we've never done it that way before!). Drove me nuts.

Thanks for the link.
