<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 1516513, member: 13650&quot;]Have a few questions.&nbsp;&nbsp; I&#039;m not a dealer and not aspiring to be one, as most of you know.&nbsp; I just spoke with one the other day and they said they would be traveling to a show in Texas.&nbsp; They have a lot of inventory but a relatively small B&amp;M shop.&nbsp; Out of my own curiosity, how well do you guys do on average traveling long distance?&nbsp; I know there are several here that travel all over the place.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; It seems to me the travel and costs involved would mean you would have to sell quite a bit just to break even.&nbsp;&nbsp; Obviously you can&#039;t break even at every show and still cover the mortgage at the end of the month.&nbsp;&nbsp; Nobody has to give exact figures.&nbsp;&nbsp; I was simply wondering how well it can go and how bad it can go.&nbsp;&nbsp; Does the average $$ return make it worth it?&nbsp; It must or people wouldn&#039;t do it.&nbsp; &nbsp; I&#039;m guessing part of it is about going to fresh territory to find new customers?</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; What year or stretch of years was the best time for you guys?</p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp; Is there a part of the country you look forward to visiting the most because of great business there?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
