Why aren't Truck Campers popular in W. Pa.?
I don't get it. With all the hunters, fisherman and unlimited destinations, why aren't TC's very popular in Western Pa.? Heck you can't even find a dealer with a decent inventory within 5 hours....

If you think they're rare in western PA, come to eastern PA. I ended up driving to the Northstar factory in Iowa to pick mine up. Of course, I continued on from there to Yellowstone so it was on my way. :)
Along these lines, when I was shopping for my truck I told one salesman I was planning to use it for a TC. He said "People don't use those anymore. Everybody uses a travel trailer of 5th wheel." I didn't bother going back to him.
So Northstar let you pick up a camper at there factory? This is the bone I have to pick with Cirrus. They will not let you pick up. Has to go through a dealer.
Almost made a deal (still thinking about it) with a dealer who is 8-9 hours away. That TC will pass right by me in 2 hours from the factory to this dealer. Ridiculous! They claim they have to prep it. Basically installing 2 batteries.
Really thinking about bailing on the Cirrus. Wife says screw em.
What I'm coming to find out is that most East/mid Atlantic RV dealers that have a used camper took it in trade. They don't stock any but Cirrus says ther're a authorized dealer. Some commitment huh? I've seen this in my business when a second tier manufacturer can't find quality committed dealers they just name one in case a sale comes up. That one dealer I visited, 5 hours away that actually had a couple TC's, I wouldn't let load my flashlight.
Anybody have any input on Adventurer?
Being new here I'm not sure we're allowed to compare brands?
