1. Pete Liegel is the "actual" owner/founder of FR.
2. Berkshire purchased FR, so that makes Pete the top executive now.
3. FR builds inexpensive trailers for the most part. I doubt Pete or Warren Buffet would even know anybody that well to order a "custom" unit. Besides, they are MASS PRODUCED, and It would be almost impossible to order a "special". They move about once every 20 minutes on the production line.
4. It used to be a practice for the President or Owner(Tiffin is one), to meet and greet customers at functions and sign their RV or give them a wall plaque with the Company's name stating the RV was "built" for John and Jane Smith.
5. Yes, the previous owner lied to you. Doug
Many years ago I was camping at Hershey High Meadow campground during the Hershey RV show.. There was an older couple sitting outside their Tiffin motorhome next to me. We struck up a conversation and I ended up being invited to sit and chat.. It was a nice evening...
The following day, there he was, good old Bob Tiffin standing in a unit at the show...I had no idea That was him the night before.. He was just a regular camper enjoying life with his wife.
