[A/S] Recent Factory Visit
We have a Safari 25SS on order and decided to visit the factory and get a first hand view.
We visited on Friday afternoon and there were a few folks working overtime, trying to
catch up. Apparently demand is high, with a 10 to 12 week backlog. Don Ambose
indicated they have some shortages of items, like awnings, plywood, and rock shields.
Our camper was in "cabinetry" and had the bed and bathroom installed, but not much else.
Scheduled completion was supposed to be November 15, but we will see.
We enjoyed an evening camping at the Terraport...and were allowed to stay in our
current...non-AS trailer. The kids had a great time and we really enjoyed our visit. We
ordered the camper on September 3rd and are very excited about it. I know there have
been some questions about quality and we will provide feedback after delivery of the
trailer.
We have enjoyed the website for the last few months and are glad to have a chance to
learn so much.
