A search of "Tango" turned up nothing so I'll be the first to post on this subject.

We have a 2003 19' Nash TT that we bought brand new. Love it. Well built. Tows extremely well behind the CTD. Having a bumper pull still leaves room in the bed to put a couple of quads. But with a baby daughter now and another one on the way in a year or so, we've outgrown our Lil' Nash. Time to upgrade a bit.

Was in to one of the local RV joints near here and checked out a Tango 216. Man, this is one WELL BUILT RV! Sales guy was darn near an expert on the thing and did a great job of explaining what makes a Tango a Tango. He was pulling on the counters for all it was worth and they never even budged. Same thing with the overhead cabinets - he was practically doing pull-up's and they stayed put. He walked me around the thing showing me how every single seam is sealed. He pounded on the walls, windows, counters - I walked away extremely impressed. Price is a bit higher than what I was expecting to pay but you get what you pay for, right?

Anyone hear have a Tango of their own or any first-hand experience with one? I'd sure appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

 

You might be better off to search for Sportsmen, or Frontier, There made by KZ, But KZ dropped the Frontier line and Sportsmen line and renamed it Tango, Dont know why but the KZ rep said marketing reasons..

Are you sure you're not thinking of a different line of trailers?

The Tango is made by Pacific Coachworks.

 

We looked at them,but found the same thing you have,outside of the dealer,nobody has heard of them. At the time we looked (last Spring) they only had a few models out and we didn't "feel" any of them.

As you say,they did seem to be pretty stout.

 

Where did you get that info? I was just by the KZ factory and there are tons of Sportsmen's there (http://www.kz-rv.com/sportsmen/index.html).


Tango is made by http://www.pacificcoachworks.com/.

 

You beat me to it, guess I need to type faster. I will say, I have never seen a Tango on a dealer lot and I go to a lot of different dealers. My worry would be warranty out on the road. Does anyone know any history on Pacific Coachworks??

 

Found some history, they are a pretty new company. I would be a bit cautious, the rv industry is in a bit of a lull and you never know how financially stable they are. Looks like they started late 06. Here is the story.


Pacific Coachworks, the Inland area's newest recreational vehicle maker, completed its first trailer Monday at its Riverside manufacturing facility.

Workers on Monday inspect the first Tango RV trailer to come off the production line at the Pacific Coachworks facility in Riverside.

The 28-foot Tango trailer was purchased by California RV, which plans to sell Pacific's trailers at its stores in Fontana, Colton, San Bernardino and Baldwin Park.

"I haven't been as excited since my two sons were born," said Chief Executive Tom Powell, a 30-year RV industry veteran. "To be on time and to see all the things done that had to be done to come to this day is really gratifying."

Started by Powell and Dane Found, Pacific Coachworks has 80 employees and plans to make six trailers a day. Powell and Found are former executives with Moreno Valley-based, Thor California, a subsidiary of Ohio's Thor Industries.

Located in a newly built, 66,000-square-foot factory, at 549 Rivera St., Pacific has lined up 20 dealers in 11 Western states and in parts of western Canada. Its line of 20- to 30-foot trailers and fifth wheels range in price from $13,000 to $27,000.

California RV president Fred Donson said it's always a risk to do business with a new company but that he feels comfortable with Pacific Coachworks.

"It's the care and the concern that the founders, Dane and Tom, show for their employees, the product and their customers," he said.

Donson said he will keep the first trailer as a display model in one of his stores.

Inland Southern California is home to more than a dozen RV makers, employing more than 3,500 people. They include: National RV Holdings and Weekend Warrior, both with headquarters in Perris; Fleetwood; Thor; and Forest River in Rialto.

 

Sorry my mistake.
