Severe hail damage to TM Dealer in Phx
Late last week the Phoenix area was hit with a freaky series of storm cells. Our favorite RV center & TM dealer, Michigan Trailer Sales, was devastated by hail larger than golf balls. They were blown into the sides & roofs of nearly all the trailers on the lot.
My wife and I walked over to see what had happened to the new TM's. Most looked like they had been beat with hammers. The number of strikes per square foot varied with the roofs taking the most hits. It was so sad.
Some or all may be totaled and/or sent back to the factory. I've been in this valley for over 30 yrs and I can't recall ever seeing anything like this.
Some trailers show more damage than others depending on their angle to the winds & if they were sheltered by adjacent trailers.
But if cosmetics aren't that important to you -- you might be able to get an incredible deal on a hail-damaged trailer.
Jim, the owner, carries a number of other product lines. He didn't ask for my help -- but he's such a great guy I can't help but advocate for him in these tough times.
His number is 602 841-4890. The recession has been tough enough -- now he gets this new challenge.
Or if you need anything mail-order -- please consider Michigan Trailer Sales.
Ps -- we didn't get our '07 trailer from Jim. He didn't carry them at that time.
