Yea, many of the residents of the Montgomery County area don't think very
highly of them. Something about local lowlife with too much money.
I used to live about 30 miles East of there and sometimes bought steel from
Orange County Ironworks (before OCC). Every visit there was a bit of an
experience.

He got tired of all the crap and left. OCC is having problems. They are
making a lot more bikes and the present staff is getting overworked, They
are trying to hire more people.
They ought to hire Vinnie back, give him a big raise and make him a shop
foreman.

Thanks for the info. It doesn't really surprise me that much that he
left.

I usually hate reality TV, but that show has it's moments for me.
I get a kick out of Gene's unusually down-to-earth appearing kids
describing his abnormal habits.

I fly into Montgomery County Airport, in Orange County, NY, on a
regular basis. You should see what happens if you bring up OCC in the
airport restaurant!
The place literally divides in half...
He left with Cody and formed a new enterprise V-Force customs. They
have their own website..be forewarned it is rather slow to load.
