Exactly. Which is why you feel need to put down the company and the concept, just as a few others have done here.
Your interpretation, I guess, of what to me was a very clear compliment of the implementation, and the folks who made it happen. I believe I was explicitly complimentary in these areas.
I was also very clear that I was sharing my opinions, nothing more--since I used 'IMO' and 'for me' extensively. My opinions don't require any validation. As for the price, no where did I even hint I took issue with the pricing--I specifically used a little smiley to humorously-suggest how I could otherwise spend the money; I think that 'camping' and 'Ritz Carlton' should have made it clear this was a humorous comment, not a serious jab at the pricing. I have never had any issue with anyone or any company based on how they choose to price their offerings.
I thought folks were inviting themselves to share their opinions--I shared mine and am surprised anyone would find them offensive, unless glowingly-positive comments are the only sort that are welcome.
I DID mis-word the 'any easy trails' comment. My intended meaning was to counter the claim that the vehicle would negotiate ALL easy trails. The specific trails I have in mind are flat, level, no obstacles other than overhead clearance (rock and/or trees). I also was quick to admit there are likely many trails the unit wouldn't have problems with. I hardly think this is a big issue.
On a public forum where the riff-raff are allowed in, one might reasonably expect a broad spectrum of opinion (substantiated to your satisfaction, or not), expressed in a variety of ways. However, I will happily limit my opinions here to: none, those that are solicited by those who have been authorized to make such solicitations, or to more constructive comments.
I have only the best wishes for all business endeavors, especially small business. I sincerely hope this venture is as successful as those involved expect it to be.
