This is what I was thinking - from the post, it sounds like no cash has been transferred and no deal has been set.

I do agree it would be awesome to see all the brands come together under one roof. In being through a similar transition in a different category, the synergies are great and benefit all.

If the company is gonig to a liquidation auction then no one is buying the company as a whole. If it was a negotiation to purchase it would not have been publicized until all contracts and deal were finalized.

Hustler buying Fountain wow I didn't know they were doing that well. I really liked that big triple Yanmar 51. Would be nice if Joe could make it all work...
