If it helps.....
after a 38 year pilgrimage I bought a Unique.
But - having been married 26 years, my wife was four-square AGAINST getting such an (insert here in her voice)"expensive, frivolous, impractical, doesn't-even-have-a-heater-or-radio" toy.
Acknowledged its expensive. Shopped mfgrs a lot - went to Conn. and to Mass. to look at others. Calmed her fears about time to build and gave reasons why buying one already built saved only about 3K and entailed compromises all around.
Now? At 5 the other morning, as I got up, I was warned not to be late getting home. Oh, yeah, why? - "It's been at least a week since I had a ride and WE"RE GOING TONITE - so don't be late."
Quick build - roughly 7 weeks by me alone; awesome appearance and sound; NEVER fails to get thumbs-up by State Troopers; and even my wife has become a Cobranut.
All thanks to the Weavers and their second-to-nobody product.
