I was told their last day will be June 18th, but the place is emptying out now. They will still have wharehouses in NJ, SC, and WI. the state of CT is not profitable for them anymore, too much taxes. To bad, they have been her for at least 15yrs that I know of.

BTW, AW Direct is closing thier doors forever in CT. in case you wanted to pick anything up.
Ray I'll wait for yours so long as I'm first in line for it. If you're putting a new bed on the 7.3 would you have any interest in selling the bed and dump system together so long as the bed is in decent shape? My bed is pretty shot...
