Im not so sure about the "crush the market "statement, the glass market is there not only for cost reasons,an aluminum body car is not as forgiving as glass and most buyers should know that. The aluminum market may gain some share if prices go down ,but it will never take all, and to think that would be a huge mistake.I still think that a 40,000 price target would be to low for KMP to keep up to,a jump in sales at first ,but then you have to do that every year, they already have the market ,why give it away?Yes the whole market is changing, but when you are in the drivers seat ,never panick or make decisions that can hurt you in the long run.Good for the consumer at first ,but what if it causes a buisness to go under, then what?KMP has many options ,without giving the store away.
