With the Vexus boats unveiling at the bassmaster classic, I saw on their facebook the hype video. They look pretty basic and sleek, thoughts?

I could care less to see the aluminum boat. Ill be waiting for the glass boat to come out. But Id imagine you are going to see a lot of similar features in it and Rangers. But Vexus will be built a little better than the Rangers. That's my thoughts.

What you think about the pricing? I expect them to be stupid expensive as well.

there is no way they will be less expensive than other top of line boats with building new facilities an putting a staff together an paying them a good while before selling the first boat these folks have been about the upper end of quality an pricing doubt if they will change.

If all they are trying to sell is high end boats good luck. As far as being better quality than Ranger that is bs . Nothing but hype .

I bet they come out with a very good product, not sure if they are going to make lots of money, too competitive of a market, not many folks can afford 70 K plus bass boats.

Always nice to see new rigs hit the market.
I love the smell of two stroke in the morning.

Theres actually 240 month financing available. So you can still have a double wide.

Pretty sure these guys have been in the business long enough to know how to be competitive in the boat market. I expect to see multiple levels of boats to attract customers at different price point levels. They didnt make an aluminum boat first for any other reason than to grab a large customer base at a lower price point and sell some boats right off the bat to generate some cash flow. I think the top of the line boat will be last to be released. JMO

JMO Could be good for the consumer, prices could come down a little, I could be in the market for a new one about the time their flagship boat hits the market.
