Call the service department of the manufacturer and ask them, unless of course it's an Alpha, National RV Product, or Travel Supreme. If you mean plain old every day service, most any RV dealer.

There were a couple of others that were mentioned but I cannot remember them now. I will say that they were right on the money on Alfa.

It's strange you can remember Fleetwood who is either the largest or 2nd largest manufacturer of RV products in the world. Do you even think for 1 minute they would sink the whole corporation before they 1st closed down the poorest performing brands??? It's not news that Fleetwood Corp. has been losing money, as are most RV manufacturers now, so what was your point????????

I know about All Valley RV on Sierra Hwy in Acton. My primary concern was the reason for their departure. >> Or Western RV (Aplinlite) > > Oops, forgot about them. > > Who's next?<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Fleetwood , Ford and the US dollar!!!!!!!! Dmax >>> Or Western RV (Aplinlite) >> [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >> -- > Fleetwood , Ford and the US dollar!!!!!!!! http://www.rvtoday.com/RVManufacturers.html Look at the list and there are many that will go before Fleetwood or Thor, the two largest. They can start shedding models when push comes to shove. Now if you had selected Fleetwood model names, that would be a different story!! Tom J >>>> Or Western RV (Aplinlite) >>> [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Tom J Look for more RV dealers going under this summer. Fuel has just become too expensive and many of those who drive RVs are barely managing to keep their heads above water considering the one/two punch of paying off the loan and filling the tanks. The last thing they're thinking of is upgrading. It's just not affordable. RV dealers will be the first to feel the pinch. Repair outlets, however, should have increased business as people will tend to hold onto their old RVs longer so there will be more wear-related repairs necessary to keep them on the road. On the other hand there will be more parked RVs because people aren't able to afford them anymore. People complain about the "bad" economy and how fuel and food is getting so expensive. Should they really expect luxury businesses that cater to frivolous pursuits such as ocean yachts and RVs to prosper? Negative! The luxury items are among the first to go by the wayside in a bad economy. In these times it's hard enough to afford basic transportation to and from work. For many folks it's now impossible to afford traveling in fuel-guzzling rolling vacation homes. It was good while it lasted but like all good things the end is in sight. The sad thing is try selling your fuel hog RV for anything near what you've put into it. If you don't take it in the shorts you'll be stuck with it forever. You'll be forking out that high monthly payment for the next four or five years just to pay off a loan on something you can little afford to use anymore. Sad. One suggestion, if you find you must park your RV be sure to turn off the propane at the tank. Don't take a chance on a fire or explosion adding insult to injury. Harry Harris ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** >>>>> Or Western RV (Aplinlite) >>>> [quoted text clipped - 45 lines] > >** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** Just thought that I would put out a little information from here in Colorado. This was the first weekend that the Colorado State Park called "Mueller", was fully opened for the year. They have 138 RV spots and all but two were booked and in use this weekend. I would say that most of those that have an RV are still going to use them, for they already are paying for them or have paid for them. What I will agree on is that a lot of RV owners will be looking for shorter destination locations thus cutting back on the gas required, but they will continue to use them. I feel I know, for I am retired and have an older RV which we love and will continue to use. Later this year I will apply for SS as an older Baby Boomer and that should help with allowing me to at least go up into the mountains a little ways. Oh, BTW, we average about 14 trips a year in the Summer/Fall and I still look forward to about that many, just some will be a little closer to home.
