Tyler at Mid-West either has no idea what he's doing or is a liar. First of all, I was looking at a much cheaper camper that would leave me money for updates and accessories like an awning but he offered me a great deal on a better camper so I took him up on the offer. It was great, he told me the camper weighed 900lbs, my vehicle could tow 2000lbs so it was perfect. I got suspicious after hearing conflicting weights from other people and when I saw the title and it stated the weight was 2700lbs I questioned him. He assured me the camper weighs 900lbs and that the title weight is actually the max weight the camper's axle could handle. I was still weary so I took it to a truck scale. The camper that he hooked up to my 4 cylinder Sorento that could tow a max of 2000lbs ACTUALLY weighs 3000lbs, EMPTY! I was livid but loved the camper so I went and bought a pickup that could tow it. Problem solved but still made him look like an idiot. While picking up the camper, I noticed the awning was missing and he assured me that it had an awning (that was important to me). I asked about it and he said it was being repaired and he would get it to me once it was back from the upholstery place. Fast forward TWO MONTHS and I am getting ready to take the camper on it's maiden voyage still without an awning. In the past 2 months I had sent several emails that he eventually quit responding to and had left a few messages that he would not respond to. I finally got the awning with a week to spare, took it home to slide it on and there's nothing on the bag to slide into the track. I called him several times and spoke to Linda who was passing on messages but because Tyler would never call me back, I had no clue what was going on if anything so I finally went down there with the awning and confronted him. Just so happened that an upholstery guy was there when we arrived so Tyler, reluctantly asked the guy if he could stitch something to the bag that would slide onto the channel. I had a piece of rubber that I slid out of the channel that the awning was CUT off of and I gave that to Tyler. Apparently, Tyler told the upholstery guy to use that piece. Tyler said "I can't keep putting money into this camper because I made you a hell of a deal"..... he OFFERED me a hell of a deal AFTER I told him the camper was out of my price range. I was grateful but also wanted a working awning because the awning is important to me and he assured me that the camper had one. Well, Tyler had the upholstery guy use the old rubber and wrap it but the old rubber barely fit so after it was wrapped, it wouldn't slide into the track. The upholstery guy asked Tyler to help me fix it but Tyler refused. As I see it, Tyler got his money and didn't follow through with the entire sale. I have my camper and the upholstery guy is left cleaning up the mess Tyler made. He doesn't know what he's doing and once he has his money, couldn't care less about his customers.
