I've got a little bit of cash sitting in my pocket for that popup  Clap  (And I do mean a little) Can hoop into the truck and run down for it. (Wife rolling her eyes at me right now as we have a second camper sitting in the driveway I came home with over the weekend)
 
Sure hate to see that brand go

My first popup was an Apache Smile
Was that decades ago???? Cry
 
I heard Thor was interested in buying a year ago, but could not reach an agreement with Fleetwood to sell the rights to the name, design plans, etc.  (price, labor agreements, and/or?).  My "Coleman" TT is a Thor product, built in their Dutchmen division.  It will be interesting to see what happens.  If purchased, I hope whoever buys doesn't ruin the product.  I always thought Coleman was the best popup, by far.

I believe someone else will buy up the license and floorplans and continue the line.  Personally this really sucks, not that I'm that attached to the brand name, but because I still haven't tried very hard to sell our popup and now it may be almost impossible!  At the very least I won't get what I could have before.]]> Thu, 27 Jan 2011 11:01:24 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1571&PID=13292#13292 Goodbye, old friend? : I still remember when the Apache... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1571&PID=13287#13287 Author: HuronSailor
