We really need a Header called "News Articles" so that we can share Breaking News when we hear about it...

That said, here is a Breaking News story out of Florida about Gander Mountain Stores and Camping World...

It appears Gander Mountain has filed Bankruptcy and good ole' Camping World has bought them out. Now maybe there will be REAL Camping / RV Stores where we can find everything we need all in one place. I did say maybe...

I just read about GM closing, but not CW buying them, that means the prices won't drop at either store then.

We have a new Gander Mountain that just had its grand opening in Sept, now the out of business sign. I liked their store, but they were in the shadow of Bass Pro and the 3 new Cabella's.

What in the world will Camping World do with them? They already saturated the globe by taking over every Dealer out there and shoving a store in their sales floor and pushing the salesman outside. The mind of Marcus is a mystery.

Does that mean camping world will soon be selling guns and ammo.

Went to a camping world recently, and there was so many RVs for sale in the lot that I had to go next door to park my dually.

The service manager was so up to date--he said they would not work on Redwoods as they couldn't get parts.
