You Won't Believe this

[Duncan]

One suggestion I have is to become more active on this board. I know you guys probably troll the discussion boards, but I think most of us would get pretty excited to have discussions with you and your design team. All you have to do is read this board to realize that most of us have a special bond with the Tige brand (ok, maybe not turbonine ).
So, I guess what I'm trying to say is that being in close touch with your customers will make us even bigger fans than we already are.

As a soon-to-be new Tige owner (order for 09 RZ2 goes in a few days out of State-a-Mind StL), I will tell you that this board and its members contributed strongly to my decision to go Tige. That sort of impression would be further solidified with increased corporate presence.

When deciding among the mind-boggling array of tow boats available today, many people will hit the web before stepping foot in a dealership. Corp websites are useful of course, but many (myself included) find discussion forums even more so. Nothing like taking the temperature of the installed user base. This board ups the ante of other owner discussion forums--it seems to be an actual community, populated by users having a wide array of skills and knowledge, most of whom are more than willing to help long time posters and newbies alike. And quite the cast of characters they are

Take the above for what it is (or is not) worth--musings of a newbie to this forum and Tige.

EDIT--recognition should be made of Abileen's increased presence here over the last few months!

I am up for it. Jody prolly isn't.

I agree with dogbert on the presence. I would like to see more happen on the East Coast (North East).

Maybe some type of contests/appreciation for those that are long time members on TO?

Present ways for us to market the Tige brand other than just the mere fact of having our boat of course.

Christmas card?

More of our stories, picts on the Tige website? There are always lots to choose from.

Hey Ben and Charlie,
You guys are awesome, youre in touch with the people who count, (your customers) a good old fashioned "road trip" I love it. Hey, you guys got time to hit Lake Don Pedro, I know you know where it is, being from this area and all. I would love to meet you guys. I'll even drive, so you guys can surf or something! I'm self empoyed, so you name the time.

Suppose to be in Sacramento today and again on the 15th. I am hoping that they are planning to continue to let us know where the RZ2 is so we can make plans to see it. I am very interested in see it even though I am not out to purchase a new boat. But I do know a few people that might be this winter.
