Title: Setback! 21-BHS not ready for primetime
Post by: leslie on September 21, 2014, 12:43:02 AM
I have been a little bummed out. My Camplite 21-BHS that I special-ordered was supposed to be completed on September 16. Now the factory says it won't be finished until September 22. Pics will be delayed...as camping will also be delayed.

Bummer!

But on the "Fast Eddie Personal Tragedy Scale", stuff like this barely moves the needle.

 [/quote][font size="3"]Eddie,

If you can quantify your Tragedy Scale I think we could all use a copy. Sometimes we need to step back and recalibrate  :D   :D.  That said, I can still sympathize with Leslie.

I done told her to buy two at the same time. Maximizes the chances that one of them would be complete by now.

My logic is unassailable.

Our 16 TBS is also supposed to be done in the next couple of days - we're getting ready for the long roadtrip to pick it up at the factory sometime the first week of October.

Not to pile on (well, maybe a little bit), but our 16TBS was supposed to "come off the line" at the factory a week ago last Friday and we've heard nothing except that it was delayed. Camping season is drawing to a close here in Michigan early next month so here's hoping we all get our orders soon!

Hurry up - and wait.....factory delays delivery two weeks - if they make it would put the entire build process at 7 weeks

I talked to the dealer today. The factory completed my Camplite today. The delay was due to not having some parts for the tip-out bunk. Now the wait begins for an available driver.

Did you custom order it with a tip out bunk somewhere?

I ordered a custom-made Camplite 21-BHS. It has bunks, the bath, and from there forward I changed things. No slide, instead a tip-out bunk, dinette instead of queen bed, etc., etc.

You'll have to post pictures once you get it. I'm curious what the end result will look like. Maybe a new alternate floorplan for them to offer.
