It's still horse stuff...
I'm sorry, but there are lots of dealerships in my area - usually on the highway. Passing by, you can see multitudes of RV's of every shape and size. I know two people that have purchased popups in the past 2 months. I'm sure the article writer can accommodate them.
Sure, there are some manufacturers who are putting out just huge power hungry vehicles. They do it because they have a customer base for those products. And the people buying these aren't going to come to the authors CG. They don't care how well you can drive it either. Imagine having the money to buy one, but you can't since the manufacturer requires a driving test first - or successfully launching a boat before you could purchase one.
This guy doesn't seem to understand the typical camper - they don't all go out and buy huge rigs, bring them to a CG such as his and wind up disappointed because they can't use their 400 volt hookup. I'm sure the owner and the manager comes out and they all stand about the site and wail about the evil manufacturer - curses on them!
In regards to the show people put on when pulling/backing, everyone has to start somewhere. It took me 2 hours to get my 25 footer into my driveway the first time. Too bad you missed it - you could have posted about it too.
If this guy wants to attract more business from people he can accommodate, then he needs to learn how to market his CG. Crying about it, and blaming the manufactures isn't going to get him very far.
Imagine being the CEO of this company and mandating that a study be done to see how well CG's around the country can accommodate their product line, and then scaling back production because a lot of them can't. He'd be packing boxes in his office.
The RV's that can fit in his sites outnumber the ones that can't. For some reason, they are not coming to stay there. That's not on the manufacturer of the ones who can't fit in his sites.
