Re: Beware!
Orangebeacher, my better half just heard back from someone at Beuna Vista. I am happy to hear that you have reconsidered. I understand that the reservation records were lost during the transition making tracking the previous owner's promotion difficult. I appreciate your efforts and we will continue to patronize Buena Vista and share with others this positive outcome. Well done!618Views0likes0CommentsRe: Beware!
BB TX, I've got to disagree. We were out there on social media talking up Buena Vista as a really great place to spend some time. Why, now that they've failed to meet my expectations, should I bite my tongue and wish them the best? I believe they've done a disservice to their loyal customers. My RV Park Reviews posting gave them a straight up 10. I firmly believe in recognizing outstanding service, just as I am fully prepared to report and failure. And, this is a failure as far as I'm concerned.296Views0likes0CommentsBeware!
We have been frequent visitors to Buena Vista Class A RV Resort in Orange Beach Alabama for several years. This is one of the nicest RV resorts we've every found. During our stays there, the management offered a special where for every 10 days you stayed at the Resort you got a free day that could be used at anytime. We had accumulated a few days and were planning on cashing them in this spring. When we called to make our reservations, the lady who we spoke with said they were under new management and were not honoring the the previous managements promotions. If they want to end the promotion, fine, but they should have honored those days already earned by their customers. While I feel this is a poor decision, it is perfectly within their right to so. But its also my right to publicly call them out. We were vocal cheerleaders for Buena Vista, recommending the resort to anyone we knew heading to Orange Beach. We will now use our voice to expose their poor business practices. Their are plenty of camping opportunities in the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area. I will be taking my business to Bella Terra.6.6KViews0likes25CommentsRe: DEF re-gen cycle frequency
A Cummins rep responded to an email inquiry I submitted and confirmed what most of you have already explained to me. At least as far as my particular ISL engine is concerned, the re-gen process is usually passive, meaning it takes place without the operator's knowledge. The only time the operator may be alerted is when the engine is operated frequently at low speeds. Since most of my driving is interstate, it is unlikely I would ever know a re-gen is happening. Thank you all for your replies.604Views0likes0CommentsDEF re-gen cycle frequency
We've owned our 2012 Winnebago Tour for 2 years and traveled roughly 15000 miles. We purchased it with 17000 miles. I have yet to experience a DEF re-gen cycle. Isn't there a dashboard light to notify that the cycle is occurring? Ninety percent of our travels are at interstate speeds and conditions(if that makes any difference). I thought it would have called for a re-gen at least once during this time. Everything is running fine, just wondering why.6.8KViews0likes19CommentsRe: Rvparkreviews.com
A couple weeks ago I submitted two reviews on the same day. The first review I rated pretty high. The second review was rated poor. The poor review was not posted. I have submitted 20 something reviews over the past few years and this was the first review where I was extremely critical of the campground. Seems ironic to me my poor review is the only one not posted.292Views0likes0CommentsRe: fresh water pump
My guess is the pump is running but you can't hear it because it's not pumping anything. My pump is nearly impossible to hear when I run out of water. Find the pump and put your hand on it. You should be able to feel it running. Be carful not to let it run dry for very long. I have never heard of a "float switch in the freshwater tank.232Views0likes0CommentsRe: How many do you know who quit the "Class A" life?
I would think that a lot folks who to purchase a class A motorhome have enjoyed the lifestyle for a while and likely transitioned to a class A from less costly RV's. By the time they decided to invest in a class A, they were pretty sure RV'ing was something they enjoy. That being said, I know folks who camped for years whose interests changed over time and they moved on. I also know people to never camped a day in their life whose first RV was a 40' pusher. To each, his own. Friends question my sanity all the time when they see the ridiculous amount of money we spend in pursuit of our hobby. They say, "you could fly to your destinations and stay at a five star hotel for what you spend" "Yeah, so what?" I know we could, but we don't want to. This is what we want to do.186Views0likes0Comments
