Even though we have had 2 Travel Supreme motorhomes, this latest development has made me decide to sell my new 2007 Select Limited. Besides the fact that I live in California and would rather not make any more trips to Indiana. Anyone interested in a purchase, please contact me.

Would like to know more if its still available. Thanks

I believe Travel Supreme did a poor job of advertising and marketing there products. How long has it been since you saw a TS ad in Trailer Life or Motor Home magazines? Or any publication for that matter. More dealerships were needed. You can't sell a product if potential customers don't know about it.

Even a good product can't survive poor management.

You gotta be kidding... they advertised in every issue of Motor Home Magazines I subscribe to.

I subscribe to Motor Home. Give me the dates of three issues and the page numbers of the Travel Supreme advertisements. I also subscribe to Highways and I don't recall seeing any ads or test comparisons?

Perhaps I just missed them but being a former owner of a TS 5th wheel and a TS motor home I always looked for them.

I bought our 2007 TS at the Denver RV and travel show in 2007.Mr Brad Whitehead was the co. rep at the show.Steve Caseys RV was the dealer i bought it threw.They told us even in writing that all the issues we had with the coach would be repaired.With out going threw all the months of problems we had,now the co. goes out of business.I wanted to express my frustration not only with TS but Steve Caseys RV.Had they taken care of our coach like we were promised,I could care less about TS problems.After 14 months,the coach is still not finished.I received a call from Caseys saying,that if i wanted my warranty parts and service,i would have to pay for them.The several conversations i had with the owner Steve was nothing more then how sorry he was,and this is not how he runs his business.But as i just said 14 months later the coach is still not done.

I also own a TS 5th. Wheel. I had it in for approved Waranty Work in December,07. I mailed the infor to TS. In late January,08 I called TS to inquire about my $1,100. ckeck. I was told they were not paying any claims but mine was on the top of the stack when they start paying again. I knew it was all OVER at that point. I then inquired about what's going on,sales, production, etc. I was told there were twenty total units on the two lines that they were completing.
Just imagine those poor customes buying a unit and then no service work. Management was totally aware they were closing down. Talk about a Christian orginization !!!

Travel Supreme did a greatjob building ualtity 5 th. wheels. I have a 2006 that is perfect. I suspect their problems started when they got into motorhomes. Totally different ball game.

One of the owners is the son of the man that started Newmar Industries back in the late sixties.

One of their problemsI heard after the two owners got rich, they only worked a few hours a day and went back to their mansions that they had built. The RV business is a full time job.

Oh yes, my RV is for sale due to health reasons.
