Refrigerator in 2014 Palomino tent trailer is hotwired

Dakota98, you are probably correct in your observation.

Cutting corners, installing an appliance that is just plain the wrong kind for a pop-up only to increase profits by how much? $100? Short-term gain for them, for sure.

However Palomino is the loser in the long-term. When and if the time comes for us to trade up, Palomino has lost us as a potential customer. Word of mouth, reputation is everything.
