If not to help and share information, why post?Dakota98 wrote:Old-Biscuit wrote:
1 1/2 hours should have been plenty of time/opportunity for 'how does this work, how does that work, show me.......etc.
Buyer beware/entry level......has nothing to do with whether it is a 'decent' unit or not.
Buyer beware..means ask/inquire PRIOR to purchase
Entry level....means it is a basic functional unit lacking all the bells and whistles.
Using a entry level Newmar Class A as reference when talking pop-up tent camper is disingenuous
You bought a basic functional camper and are now unhappy with some of it's features......upgrade the fridge to the Dometic fridge that is an 'option'
Course that will cost more.
Many "first time buyers" of an RV don't even know what questions to ask & the Dealer (sales person) isn't going to mention the negative features of what they are selling, entry level or not. I think the 12 volt system is probably the most misunderstood feature of an RV. Many of us that have owned one for a while, didn't really learn about it, but through experience.
OP is NOT a 'first time RV buyer".....just a first time pop-up.
They had a Newmar Class A previously.
Not noobies.
And a quick glance at that 'cooler' would have been a clue that there isn't much in the way of controls........only knob on it is a thermostat setting. Period
OP has 'buyers remorse' and comes on forum to bad mouth the mfg.
MFg. provided an entry level product which OP purchased eyes-wide open yet blames the mfg.
OP stated "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."
I questioned OP if they had checked it out and they stated YES.
The 'fridge' is just an electric cooler with just a thermostat control knob. Nothing more. Easily seen prior to purchase.
Just don't see where Palomino did wrong but they got the blame.
Common theme now a days is to point blame and not take personal responsibility of ones own actions/decision.
Rude.......YES but it wasn't my fault!
