2008 Palomino reviews

LOVE IT. We are retired and use this 5th wheel very often. We're not full timers, but close enough. The floor plan is awesome. The wood work is very nice, and nicely crafted. The components (fridge, stove, converter, chairs and so on) are of great quality. It tows (hauls) very nicely as well. Inside is so quite. Those 3 inch walls makes a huge difference. We RV yr round and mostly on the Oregon coast. It's gets very chilly at night outside, but you stay nice and toasty inside. We have owned several 5th wheels over the past 17 yrs, and this one is a gem. It's not been trouble free, but Highland Ridge has taken care of our issues. NOT THE DEALERSHIP Where we bought it. Al's Trailers in Salem Oregon, please stay clear of this dealership. If not for the care of Highland Ridge we would not be writing this. We would buy this brand, and floor plan over and again. (though I'm not a fan of pinch and rolled outer walls) after one yr of ownership... WE LOVE THIS OPEN RANGE 3X Show less

I bought the RV to live in and placed it in one location for about 4 months. After that time I have used it very little and it has been under cover and out of the weather. I was very comfortable while living in the RV and it provided plenty of space to move around with ease. It has all the necessary conveniences that I needed. The RV was very reliable and only required the standard upkeep. I am selling the RV due to relocating over seas with my job. Show less

Actually a Bronco B-1500. Poorly made- the roof holds about an inch and a half of water when then floor is set level (badly sagging).The sides of the pop-up have all been replaced because of rot. (OSB board). The shower is damaged from normal use.(There, again, using materials not suitable for its intended use. I was about to load it on my truck when I noticed that my rear corner jacks were just about to come off the camper. They were held on by inch and a quarter wood screws run into Oriented Strand Board (which had rotted). As equipped, this truck camper should bring about $4500 or better. I probably could get $1000 Show less

Workmanship was of poor quality must have cheap labor and poor quality materials,will never buy a palomino again or recommend them,buyer beware,my 2008 has so many problems,I am fixing and seeing how this camper was put together,bet the owners of this company don't own one. Show less

This has been a great RV! When I was looking for an RV the floor plan sold me. I liked the interior colors and the fact that it has two doors. I added blackout/ thermal curtains to the living room end, with the awning out and the curtains it can lower the temp inside substantially without needing the A/C which works wonderfully. I regret the need to sell at all, but as a full time student I MUST SELL!! The only reason I did not rate towing higher, was I never had a large Pickup to move it,always had to get a friend to move it. Show less
