    Quoted from JodyG:

    The whole other side of the $4,000 Pro wholesale price coin is how much longer can the market sustain $9k retail LE models that obviously do not have thousands in extra value parts in them. Can this saturated market really sustain LE pricing with just some artwork changes and a fancy number plate on them?

    Exactly this. The number of owners of $4000+ needs to increase almost exponentially each year that has 1000s of new machines. I can't imagine this is sustainable unless a new market opens up or the hobby somehow enters national awareness. Looking very close at what happens in Texas this Spring.
