    What ACCESS Newswire covered

    This one went out over the wire — the funding round plus new leadership, with Marshall Smith stepping in as CEO. Two pieces of news that go together, because money without a plan is just an expensive runway.

    A leadership change at a hardware company is a bet on execution. Designing a great trailer is one problem. Building hundreds of them to the same standard, getting them on dealer lots, and standing behind them for years is a completely different one. Bringing in someone to run that side means the crew in the shop can keep obsessing over hinges and welds.

    For owners, none of this should be visible. The measure of a good handoff is that your trailer shows up on time, built right, with a warranty somebody actually answers.

    That's the whole job, and it never really changes. See what the team ships now over on the Basecamp page, then build the one that fits your kind of trip.
