Ah, well I am based out in Australia, and we have a very wealthy rural aristocracy here: rich families of many generations wealth who like to breed; people who live hundreds of kilometres away from town centres; who need to travel on crappy roads to get anywhere...

This is a real market in Oz: my guess is 5,000 to 10,000 potential buyers. surely there are many people like that in the US? And if the odd soccer mum wants one...well why not?
