At $150 a foot, that thing is not cheap.

Seems good for a remote area though - ex. island somewhere. That way, don't have to pay for lumber & labor to port to the remote location, and if you are off the electric grid, could just hook the solar power up to your well or something.

Solar power typically will only augment 1/2 of the electricity usage. Electricity utility is still required by code in case of emergency and system malfuctioning.

The manufactured home reminds me of the Case Study Houses. They require a large lot thus the reason of worth having the expansive glass for view and vista. On a postage stamp lot the glass will be permanently curtained over and that defeats the purpose of the modern vernacular.
 
I think I can spec build anywhere from Bakersfield to Sacramento for $65-85 a foot, custom for about $100-125 (assuming a high quality builder).

This product is interesting, it's not going anywhere.
