The tiedowns were not too tight. I have that in writing from two of the places we took it to. The third place would not give us anything in writing as the technician still worked for Host. I think you would have to use an elephant to get them tight enough to do the damage we are seeing.
We checked into taking it to Oregon. It is not cost effective. They are only offering to "give us a break on the cost" and who knows what that means. Even if the camper could make the trip on our truck it would be a couple weeks of lost wages plus the cost of the trip. Considering the price of gas it would be very costly. We asked how Host gets the campers out here and they ship them at a cost. I can't remember what they told us for a price but I think it was $3,000 or $4,000 per unit. We would have to have it shipped two ways. Again, not cost effective. Maybe they should only sell Campers in Oregon if that is the only place they can fix them.
