The person who responded to my query the next day said she had nothing on hand but she&#8217;d check out the archives when she had a chance.

They also gave me leads on where I might be able to find double pane windows should I ever need to replace mine. That&#8217;s dang good customer service. A Titanium owner I occasionally correspond with had to take his rig to Strathroy for repairs and had nothing but praise for Glendale&#8217;s customer service, also.<\/p>\n<p>I guess that all there&#8217;s left to say is &#8220;Thanks Glendale for making me such a wonderful home on wheels.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glendale RV, based in Strathroy, Ontario, has filed for bankruptcy and shut down its RV operations.
