Crusader is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Starting a brick and mortar

Both of us are in retail rv dealership. I am administration and he in finance. My ideal is to make men Men again! Dudes now days grow out nasty scraggly beards dress in t shirts and cargo shorts and have added a new color to the wheel called Real tree . The feminization of men has also been pushed to a point. Some of us remember when the dad on TV was the wise all knowing thought of reason and now on the shows they are bumbling fools that the kids are smarter than the parents.
My dream would be a place where guys can get back to feeling like a man and hopefully dress and act more like a figurehead than a dunderhead!

I'm actually in the market for an RV. Do you sell 5th Wheels? Can I contact you with some questions about the whole process (i.e. how can I save money? )

As far as the type of demographic, money doesn't discriminate. If you want to make money, sell cigars to anyone you can legally sell to in the highest volume possible. That's just my opinion. Even still, Fox seems to understand the need to place the highest priority to the people who keep returning over those who disrupt the groovy atmosphere. I think that's a good approach. The cigar enthusiasts are the bread and butter. The bar goers and casual smokers are the icing on the cake.

I've never owned a pair of cargo shorts. I do, however, have a big beard. And when I'm not at work I often wear t-shirts. And I promise you, Crusader, I am as much a man or more than the suit-wearing demographic you intend to build your B&M around. You want to open an exclusive lounge for clean-shaven rich guys, that's fine. You're entitled to do so. I'll go someplace else. But understand this: being a man is a thing of substance that does not require a barber or a tailor. And sitcom dads are not the best barometer for the contemporary definition of manliness.

Yeah, I'm not sure how my beard, my T-shirt with "My Gun License is the Second Amendment" written on the front, and my cargo shorts which expose my hairy calves somehow are symptoms of "the feminization of men". Seems rather counter-intuitive to me. But what do I know, I'm only a whiskey-slugging, cigar-smoking, beer-brewing, BBQ-ing veteran of almost a quarter century in the military; perhaps my "feminization" is so complete I don't even recognize it in me. I guess I'll go watch some TV shows from the '50's so I can learn what I should be doing as a man. That is, if I can get to the remote before I menstruate all over it.

Just an observation, Crusader, but not many of us on this board would be eligible to enter your establishment. I'm not so sure your most recent post was very well thought out.

Or that would even classify what he considers a man in general. If i DID get cargo pants, but had them camo or cut off some of my old BDUs would that be manly?

I personally really enjoy wearing cargo shorts and I'm 35. They are comfortable and the pockets do come in handy from time to time.
