So, really, the cat-predator image has been a positive part of Martin's ad image for quite a long time, from my consumer's point of view.

I agree.........and I really like the old wood inlays like my '96 Firecat has, and the Firecat I had before that.
I for one, would be really bummed and disappointed if Martin went away from that image.
If anything I'm tired of every magazine, most hunting books, hunting shows, advertisements, t-shirts, ball caps, etc, etc, etc, being about or showing "whitetails"
