I thought I had read a few weeks before the holidays that the magazine was going to press. :-() I was hoping to get it for Christmas but didn't. :( I haven't seen any post's about the new issue either. Does anyone know what happened to the magazine.
Fleetwood won the legal battle to prevent any other brand of PU from using the Coleman name. A lot of the new issue has the new Coachman "Coleman", so PUT couldn't run the magazine with the pictures and story about the new Coleman trailers.
So what happens now?
As many of you know we had to pull this issue off press because of the court battles between Fleetwood/Coleman/Coachmen. It had Coleman all over the front cover, the lead article, my letter plus a full page ad. It took a week or so to rewrite an article to get it through our designer, and then we had to get a new press schedule which tough to do around the holidays. I didn't want it to mail between Christmas and New Years because the post office is usually slammed with left over mail that tends to get lost this time of year, so I told them to hold the already late magazine and mail it this week. Whew!
We changed the "C" word into the "F" word and the Futura article will be in the next issue that we'll get out of soon.
Thanks
Dave
Thanks for updating us Dave.:)
Whoohoo!! A new mag to look forward to! :> Nice to have it to read when it's cold outside and I can't camp! At least we can dream!!!

I think this kind of sums up this whole mess, thought I'm sure Dave didn't intentionally insert this pun. :yikes:
Maybe he did and maybe he didn't ... ;)

Hi I was wondering where you got that cute put logo?
Vol. 7 No. 4 arrived yesterday! Already breezed through it twice. It might be a bit thin, but I sure look forward to it coming every other month!

The vouyer article reminds me of our tent camping days watching part time campers set-up and tear-down while lounging in our lawn chairs enjoying the late fall days listing to the Chicago Bears on the radio. We would collect and burn leftover firewood and have one last fire!

I got mine yesterday
Got and enjoyed it last night. We loved the camping vouyer article too. Had us laughing. We love going early at the start of a weekend. We set up, pour a cocktail and sit down for the evening entertainment. Typically the hubby and wife with 3 or 4 kids trying to set up there new three room tent that they just took out of the box as it's getting dark. :D
:(
Haven't received mine yet....
Mine has not come yet..... :( . I can't wait until it does. I need that mid-winter pick me up to get the spirits up!

We received our PUT magazine today. With the 4 ft. :yikes: of snow we're expecting this weekend, it will help pass the time between shovellings.

Yeah, I noticed Ray was quite the prolific, and eloquent I might add, writer in this issue. Wow. And I thought he was all about partying and karaoke! Who'da thunk it?
