This is Sears all over again. You used to be able to order a house from a catalog.

They would basically ship you everything you needed to build the house, with some plans, and that was it. Bearing in mind that was a very long time ago.

Then all houses were built by professionals and prices rose. Houses got better overall, since someone who knew WTF they're doing, put it all together.

Now, they won't even go to where you want the house. Just building the houses for you in some house factory or something and they ship it to you pre-built.

This is just a trailer home without the wheels! What the actual hell.

Don't get me wrong, mobile and trailer homes can be rather nice, but having no wheels... I dunno man, I think we're moving backwards.
