Which Trailer Was The First Laguna Cnc Camp Inn?

Only problem is, Airstream doesn’t measure up either… don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge fan of AS and I’d own one if I was made of money too but I can say from walking through both new and used examples and following many AS forums on Facebook, they have their issues too. I think there are a few TD’s that are close to CI but in the full size trailer world, not really. Maybe Bowlus but there’s very little chance I’ll win the lottery and buy one of those. Even at that, I’ve never actually seen one in person and CI is probably still superior to even Bowlus.

Have you even seen a Bowlus (other than pictures), let alone been inside? They are amazing. Do you really think people who will write a check for $300,000 to buy a travel trailer are stupid, and wouldn't complain if the quality of the cabinetry wasn't up to snuff? Of if the carpeting wasn't plush enough, and, god forbid, they got a splinter? Trust me, those things are made like nothing else.

Not even sure how to respond to this. I probably should just… not, but here I am, doing it anyway. I never called anyone stupid or said Bowlus was anything less than amazing. I did mention that I’d never seen one in person, you asked, so I’m telling you, I said it in my post. I actually read my post before I posted it. What I was attempting to say was that I believe, and I know because I own one, that the guys at Camp-Inn build a product that that is second to nothing I’ve ever personally seen. Also, that I wish there was an affordable option of similar quality in a full(er) size trailer. I don’t believe there is.

A Bowlus patrician would sneer at an Airstream plebeian, and I don't know what they think of mere freedmen like the rest of us. No hard feelings, mate. $35k for a tiny bedroom on wheels is no small change, and more than the majority of world population ever had, and will have. At a certain point expensive things just don't make any practical sense...unless one owns a Bowlus.;)

Off to go tow my $35k tiny bedroom (and kitchen) on wheels to the beach for a few days! ;)

The reason why I left this forum the first time, after years of being an active member, was because I grew tired of moderators arbitrarily changing the verbiage in my threads. If not them than who else had the power to do so? I would reread a thread, after cut and pasting it from a thumb drive to the forum a few days earlier, only to discover what was posted is not what I had contributed to a discussion.

Well, a year has passed and I have waited patiently for the moderator, Ken, to correct his irresponsible behavior with regard to this particular thread: Which Trailer Was The First Laguna Cnc Camp Inn? I’m still trying to understand why the owners and administrator of this website haven't forced his hand to do so give what is spelled out in the Terms of Service and Rules. The standard that is applied to the user should also apply to the moderator since he, too, is a user. Besides, isn't he suppose to be setting the example? In this mind, that speaks volumes of where I stand with the chain of command with regards to this forum.

The other moderators and administrators have taken no action to curtail the behavior of M&L; Michael apologized to Jenn, never once extended an olive branch in this direction. In fact, one moderator, Ken, still has his two thumbs up (Like vote) in place approving the bullying tactics of Michael. It is of my opinion the moderator should have been fired by the owners of the website for his behavior and abuse of power. That was uncalled for as was Michael’s behavior.

When Ken voted to ‘like’ the bullying tactics as outlined in the Terms of Service, he violated the terms. How is it he is still allowed to be a member of this forum?

You agree to not use the Service to submit or link to any Content which is defamatory, abusive, hateful, threatening, spam or spam-like, likely to offend, contains adult or objectionable content, contains personal information of others, risks copyright infringement, encourages unlawful activity, or otherwise violates any laws.

Because no action was taken by the owners or administrator(s), I felt no need to further contribute to something I believe in and won’t until Ken is released from his duties.

In fourteen days I will celebrate 18 years (6,574 days continuous camping) on the road with a Camp-Inn 550. I respect the company and have done more than anyone to promote their product and have asked for nothing in return. If my loyalty means so little than there is nothing left to do than say…Goodbye.

That's a lot to digest. I've never altered yours or anyone else's post for all the years I've helped out here on the forum. It's a shame you feel you can accuse me of such behavior with no evidence to back up such a hurtful, spurious claim.

You should review the terms you seem to disregard so easily...

Bear,
We have had a number of good discussions both on the forum, and in person at the CICO, and I think many people here have enjoyed the perspectives you have shared over all the years you have contributed them for us to read.

It has been nice not to see to any more words of discontent for the past year over the issue addressed above, and I don't think many here on the forum want to see it resurrected.

All parties involved have had a chance to explain the thoughts behind their remarks, and make their positions known. An apology was made to anyone (not just Jenn) who may have been offended by what they considered bringing negativity to the thread, and further explanation / clarification of the comments were made. Jenn quickly explained her position, then accepted and gave thanks for the apology made.

I hope you can reconsider accepting it as well.
Calling for anyone's expulsion from the forum over remarks that were explained and apologized for seems like an unfair expectation of the forum moderators.
Please let bygones be bygones, agree to disagree, try to all get along together, and continue to share your Camp-Inn experiences for the benefit of all those here who enjoy your perspectives.
FWIW, that's my perspective.
