Diamond plate Pioneer or Pocono?

Just kicking around the Idea for a special edition, looking for feedback. What do you think. Would it sell? Would it look good?

Hi Dave,

The improved Pioneer 110 with the quieter fans, larger hopper could do well with more bling. I would not buy a Harman, but they do look good and looks sell, maybe the cast doors could be bronzed as well?

Seriously though I always loved the look of polished stainless, maybe one with some SS accents?

I have thought of that in the past but it would be expensive as heck. Double just for materials plus TIG welding everything. If someone wants to spend $5000 on a stove it is doable but not practical . It would look nice for sure.

I'm a HUGE fan of the KISS philosophy, however if cost effective, it would be wonderful to see that 'bling'. IF it would be more efficient, produce greater heat and use less fuel....well, that would make me happy.
All these years with Axeman Anderson have given me an acute sense of what works best , may not be a 'runway model', but a more stable 'Country Girl'. Like the fella said: once you see one of them naked, you want to see them all naked!
What is more interesting to look at: a Duesenburg with a supercharger right in your face when you open the hood, or a new vette that is so covered in plastic covers that IF it has a motor, where the hell is it?

Different strokes for different folks. Smart car....for numb people to drive. UGO, because it won't, Hundai 25 years ago...wow, ........and so on.
Build it, I'll at least check it out. :roll: :idea: :shock: :!: :?:
