RVer accuses Western Horizon of breach of contract for sale of resorts
I apologize for your negative experience you had at the Camp Verde Resort. I have forwarded your comments on to our CEO and to the sales person's manager. This is not how we want to represent our resort and we will make sure the proper action is taken.

RVer accuses Western Horizon of breach of contract for sale of resorts
I suffered thru the sales pitch at Camp Verde. What a dump. They call this a "resort"? I got 4 free days thru the dealer that I bought my RV from. Never once did the dealer or WHR mention that I had to sit thru a sales pitch. This salesman would make any used car salesman look like an amateur. After nearly 2 hours I questioned him about particular resorts on the list. He never once mentioned that many on the list had been sold. When he was done he said he would would leave the room and that we had 15 minutes to make a decision. The price was good only for 15 minutes. I told him that I did not need 15 minutes. I don't make snap decisions on anything, especially when it comes to spending $8K. At that point he got agitated and insinuated that I was an idiot for even questioning either his or WHR's reputation. He asked me to sign a paper with nothing checked as to whether I would buy or not buy. I told him that I wasn't signing anything that wasn't properly filled out. His agitation escalated at that point. I told him that I wanted a couple of days to research the company, and would he call me before I left the park? He said "why would I call you, if you decide to do it, just let them know at the office. They'll contact me." With that he huffed out of the room.

I'm 60 years old and have vast experience in sales and management. I currently own a company that does business consulting. This is the worst sales experience that I have ever had. I can't believe that anyone would buy this on the spot without first checking out the company. Once I checked them out, I left the park as fast as I could.

Good luck to everyone who is a member. Based on my experience, I think things will only get worse. This is a company who obviously has no communication skills and no ethics.

Newmar provides motorhome for Vets Roll tour
Thank you Bob.

I did not know your military background; thank YOU for your service.

Matt Miller and the folks at Newmar truly 'get it' and we are thrilled to partner with them this year!

Our greatest hope is for RV manufacturers and dealers in other parts of the Eastern 1/3 of the country to consider starting a similar program.

These are the men and women who not only saved the face of freedom, but they are also the men and women who have allowed our industry to grow and prosper through the last 40+ years.

The emotional high we have experienced cannot be over stated. We owe this gratitude and celebration to this generation!!

Feel free to contact me at any time if you have an interest in our incredibly successful model. We will update this third trip on Facebook at VetsRoll.org.

Sincerely Mark Finnegan Mark@VetsRoll.org by Mark Finnegan
Newmar provides motorhome for Vets Roll tour
As a disabled veteran myself, I want to publicly thank Newmar for this kind gesture toward these veterans and this project. We are fighting different wars now and it is difficult for many people to truly understand the dangerous environment we send our brave men and women into for the war on terrorism. The death and injuries to our veterans brings incredible hardship and pain families and loved ones. Anything we can do to help lessen that pain and make the sacrifices understandable is welcome and Newmar should be commended for helping out with this effort. Thank you Newmar! by Bob Zagami
UVS Junction warns dealers about Craigslist postings
I can see ICANN getting involved (since they are the international governing body that issues domain names) if someone used Craigslist in their domain name (e.g., craigslist-info.com or some such), but that is not the same as auto-posting. Otherwise, a court would have to get involved, or the federal government. Craigslist by themselves cannot seize anybody's domain name. by Rex Gambill
UVS Junction warns dealers about Craigslist postings
Angie,

It is a "tool" and not true automation. But tools like that have to be authorized or they are against the terms of service.

eBay has serveral tools that are allowed(those companies pay ebay to allow them). Craigslist does not because it is not how they want to run their company. eBay is for businesses to sell(more now than in the past) while craiglists has tried to remain a consumer to consumer website. They have minimal staff and the site is moderated by the community.

Craigslist likely spends most of their man hours trying to block the next "tool". eBay hates this because eBay owns s significant percentage of craigslist they bought from a former employee. But lawsuit after lawsuit has found in craigslist favor. They can continue to use whatever business model they wish even if it minimizes profit. by Aaron

RV Cookbook author launches online cooking show
By Greg Gerber @ 5:01 AM :: :: 0 Comments :: Article Rating :: RV Owners
 

WACO, Texas -- Evada Cooper, author of the soon-to-be-released RV Centennial Cookbook: Celebrating 100 Years of RVing, will be featured in the launch of her new Internet program "RV Kitchen with Evada Cooper."

The program will air on RVNN.TV, which is Internet TV for the world of recreational vehicles. Cooper is also the co-owner of Mobile RV Academy.

Last Friday was the first episode of Cooper’s program featuring ideas on how to make the RV kitchen work better for RVers.

“My love for RVing and for helping people is what this program is all about,” Cooper explained. “In this episode, I discussed some storage issues with Dave Dufour, the creative director at RVNN.TV, plus I show how we might best maximize the limited space in our RVs.

"Being a past full-time RVer and having a vast amount of experience as a business owner in the food industry, I am very passionate about finding ways to make the RV experience the very best that it can be, especially in the kitchen. In the upcoming weeks, a lot of great information is going to be provided for my listeners," she added.

Soon, this weekly episode follow Cooper and her husband, Terry -- who is a master certified RV technician and instructor -- as they both go shopping for the RV that best suits them and their RV lifestyle. They will be visiting different RV shows, dealerships and manufacturers looking for the kitchen that will catch the eye of the cookbook author.

The Coopers will be going on the RV road this year as full-timers and viewers are invited to watch as they make the transition from traditional housing to taking their home onto the open road.

Terry Cooper, who is also known as the Texas RV professor, has his own weekly Internet show at RVNN.TV called "Ask the Professor." In it, he discusses RV maintenance and answers technical questions given by RV consumers.

He currently teaches RV maintenance at his own online Mobile RV Academy and also teaches the online RV Tech program for Northampton Community College in Bethlehem, Penn. Terry Cooper teaches solar and alternative energy courses at Texas State Technical College in Waco, TX where he has taught for the eight years.

The Coopers also invite the public to look at a new online program that was launched last week at Mobile RV Academy -- RV Maintenance For Ladies.
