Which adds quite a bit of cost, if not for all the AccuAir silkscreening all over it, then for the duplication of switches that most people already have. I'm eager to see what can be done with regard to Slammed67's question.

Re: Package purchase

This isn't intended to be a smarta$$ question... is there a quantity that would put the basic package in the $1000 range? I understand production costs very well... but there's still the marketability issue of "can people afford it?" and that's the big holdup for me. It's just too darned expensive for me to justify, even at the 22% level.

I might want in on some of this action also. I hate always trying to get the psi just right. I just want to slam it and bring it back to a particular setting.

The majority of systems sold go out with the control panel. There are very few people thrilled with the operation of a rocker switch. Plus, they like the simplicity of a single little tiny cord that the Billet Control Panel uses. The fiber optic backlighting to match the color of your truck is just an added benefit.

But, for those of you trying to get under a thousand. We can give you the part number for the sensors to be found on a Lincon Navigator or Expedition. A few of our customers have gone this route to save the money and found the sensors in a wrecking yard. The sensors don't go bad or wear out, so its not a bad idea. You save 100 per sensor on our system by doing this. So the 4-way Basic that is usually $1,499 would only be $1,099. So, getting under a thousand for those of you wishing to do so is possible. For this price, we would still include the stainless sensor mounting hardware and the Belden sensor cables with the correct connectors to fit the sensors. Remember this won't include the remote, but you can always add it on later.
