Hahaha, you got me there. Althought, to be fair, Snowmobile is an entirely different product category. Same problem, different scale of solution. It's like Starbucks coming out with a truck solution, when all you wanted was a Venti.



Espresso trucks sound awesome.


Interestingly, Starbucks does have both a trailer solution and a shipping-container solution. The former is parked out front when the actual store is undergoing refurbishment. The latter is seemingly air-dropped into neighborhoods like Northglenn, CO and Ballard, WA.

Coincidentally, Starbuck's first shipping container store is just a mile or two from Amazon's first use of the Snowmobile.
