Here's one I'm looking at: http://dallas.craigslist.org/******/for/4201239690.html
Don’t mean to bash anybody’s product but a piece of advice is to run from a Palomino, even at a tempting price of $3500. There are reasons they can be purchased so cheap. My neighbor and fishing buddy has a 2005 Palomino Bronco that he bought new. The thing started falling part the first year. Not just little things, but major structural issues due to the design of the back door. There isn’t anything to keep it the body in square other than the roof when it is down and even at that it doesn’t hold the body tightly together. The roof has leaked from day one which now the right rear corner wall is totally rotted out, the door has a habit of popping open while driving and on his last fishing trip of this season the aluminum on the roof pealed back and ripped off while driving down the highway exposing the top side of the interior ceiling material.….the thing is a mess. A local camper store quoted over $5,000 to fix everything on the camper which is considerably more than what he paid for it when it was new. My poor neighbor is just sick as he is retired and on a fixed income where he can’t easily go get another camper. He was hoping this would be his forever camper…..NOT. The problems he has had with his Palomino seem to be consistent to what others report around the forums. Did I mention how heavy it is? The wood frame makes for one heavy little poorly built camper.
If you’re okay with a Harbor Freight type quality of a camper to throw away in a couple years, a Palomino would be fine but I would keep looking for a clean used camper of any other brand other than Palomino.
