[u]I have always likes the cassette toilet idea, nice to see it integrated in a 4WC design. The swiveling is a clever feature for tight spaces. Thats an idea I presented to them in April 2010, when I ordered a shell model Fleet. ( I still have the e-mail ) Was met with " if we did do this (...

That is more than fair Dirty Dog..thanks

Customers on the East Coast should be made aware that the empty Shell Model camper can morph into a custom special order camper. They should read carefully before signing to purchase. Thanks

My apology, a new thread is probably the right place for all the details, but I did sign an agreement to purchase a Fleet Shell Model camper, and the dealer still does have my $2,500 deposit. I want to comply with all the forum rules, and am just interested in helping others avoid the same...

If your fridge is in pretty good shape otherwise, you could opt to replace just the cooling unit, but they are usually more than half the cost of new. Pretty common to have the ammonia (refrigerant) and water solution rust thru the steel containment after a few years use. But when that does...

Per the email from the dealer to me dated June 3, 2010 "Order has been canceled." I have no intention of abandoning my $2,500 deposit, 50% or otherwise, as it was the seller who changed the terms of purchase. I find it unusual that I got no positive response from ither the manufacturer, or the...

FWC could certainly say to this dealer " make this customer whole with his deposit, or you will no longer represent our products ". But we know that won't happen. So, here is my advice for your customers on the East Coast. Use eXtreme caution if you are going to sign an agreement to purchase a...

There is a headline today that a 57 year old Yellowstone hiker was killed by a sow that had percived that her cubs were in danger..they sure deserve respect and caution on the part of campers sorry, didnt notice the above post :)

Just a reminder to Stan, that it has now been a month since I asked to have a copy of my camper order from the dealer to FWC. It would seem that if the camper was ordered, placed into production, and then cancled, per the dealers email to me, that FWC would have that record. All I am asking is a...

You can access the inside of a HiLo from the outside, with the top lowered, but not from the inside, with the door locked. I will think about that, and see if there might be a practical way to do a mod to make it work, but just off the top of my head, seems it would be difficult to do. I have...

What actually causes the pilot flame to " stay lit " is usually a device called a thermocouple. It has to be near or in the pilot flame, and produces a small millivolt electrical current, that tells the main gas valve..ok I am lit and its now ok for the main burner to come on. As stated...

In keeping with the forum etiquette, I will not respond directly to the above comments. I will make a general comment, that as a customer, who's order and $2,500 deposit are in dispute as a result of the cancled order, I believe I have the right to have a copy of the original order, it as it...

Stan, I need your help if I could ask? Could you email or fax me a copy of the original dealer order to FWC for my camper. Per the email from your dealer, " the camper has been ordered and put into the production line " Yet, FWC seems to not be aware of the order at all?.. yet there must have...

Hi jfb, I fully support your post and don't understand why anyone would be upset with it. You were merely posting what has transpired during your buying experience. After all, you were not attacking anyone personally, just pointing out your frustrations (well deserved, by the way) about the...

Do you need to do this on a public forum? If nothing else it is way off topic. My apologies Mr Hadley, I didn't think it was off topic, since I thought and think that the Fleet is a great camper, and it was the one I chose to purchase. I would think most consumers would want to know of any...

I did indeed sign a purchase agreement for a Fleet Shell Model camper with two options. A removable front window, and a screen door. I signed this agreement on May 25th, year 2010. One year later, May 25 year 2011, I still do not have a camper and the dealer and / or FWC still have possession...

Thats a great looking setup Stan. Looks like I made a good decision on my order ref the choice of a Fleet Shell model. Could you remind your owner that he promised to look into the other issue I had. Thanks Stan

Thanks for the replies to date..perhaps I should redirect my question to owners who have purchased a new camper thru a dealership. Thanks for any replies from those folks

Newbie question here. for those of you who purchased your camper new, what was the amount or percentage of the total price required to place the order? Thanks for your replies. You may email me at jfb@yadtel.net or post your reply here. Thanks
