Coleman Mach III Power Saver AC & TDR Sucks

This is actually more of a TDR Sucks thread, but since it's about an RV A/C unit, it seemed appropriate to post here.

I've been shopping around trying to find reviews and pricing on the Coleman Mach III Power Saver A/C unit for my Keystone Raptor, which only has one A/C currently. I live fulltime in it and the park I'm in only has 30A power, so I need a lower-power unit in order to run both at the same time.

Camping World is, sadly, the cheapest overall place I've found it. I can get it there, without paying shipping (but getting stuck with CA sales tax) for around $1000 installed (ouch). That's something like $720 for the unit, $100 for the ceiling unit, tax ($80), and installation ($88).

RVPartsOutlet can't get it... I found it for $659 someplace else, but they can't get it at the moment, and shipping would be another hundred anyway.

And then I saw a thread that came up in Google from TDR, somebody talking about it there. Cool, maybe a review. Oh guess what? Now you have to be a member to see anything more than the FIRST POST in a thread!!! ***? What a bunch of losers. Makes me even more glad I didn't renew. I quit that place years ago because of all the political BS. Heck I even found out that the people who run TDR also run Genos Garage, so I won't be buying from them either.

Actually, there isn't a place for "X forum sucks" threads on the DTR. TDR runs things their way, we run things our way. There is obviously room for both. Feel free to open a new thread discussing A/C units though.

Dave is absolutely right, Please do not bash TDR or any other diesel forum here...They own it and can run it any way they see fit. We have NO problem with TDR, good people run that place.
