Well there you go Jack reverse marketing, keep pushing the old models while bringing in the new. I doubt that would ever happen these days, it is hard to keep up with what a manufacture is selling today because tomorrow they have a different model. I guess they could do that back then when brand name was important and Victa had sold good products for years to the domestic market. These days brand name is only relevant to people such as contractors who want quality and are prepared to pay for it. Even then they struggle to find good quality products because they are also driven by market forces that push manufactures to try and produce cheaper products
