Bob Wheeler is CEO of Airstream, the 86-year-old maker of iconic, silvery trailers.
Wheeler was referring to the company's new 725,000 square-foot factory, a short drive from Airstream's old plant, around since 1970. "Sixty percent of the recreational vehicles we make are sold west of the Rockies," he said.
