Need an opinion

[Stephen Birtles]

Canadians buy wanderlodges not because of location where they were built I
would buy Canadian But they are not built here
And really the quality is soso Buy a Wanderlodge and get a hobby fixing it
and i would not touch a 2004=2006 because they were spec'ed oh so well
light weight front ends too small tires watch the lawsuits
and when did you see a wanderlodge built in Canada or for that matter now any
where else. creative book keeping, the economy and poof they are gone

to inspect the work and to point out anything that was unacceptable or not the
way he wanted it. The end result was a *very* good paint job. And for the price
that owner paid, it was beyond a screaming deal, that he could not have touched
in the states.

There can never be a replacement for the superior quality of USA craftmenship
and service. Kind of the reason Canadians buy Wanderlodges.

Algadones has a superb reputation. The prep is awesome as they hand sand the
whole coach. There are bus conversions running around that had jobs done there
beyond 5 years and they still look good. He has gotten better with removing
external items such as awnings. I would not hesitate to have my unit painted in
his shop. The cost difference is in the labor not the paint.
