Location: Kingston, Ontario | When I was looking at trailer manufactors, I seem to find a lot of indication that "Bison"" trailers where having their ups and downs.. (mostly downs)Well, I went ahead and purchased one anyway...So, I have found several things that I don't consider good quality but, low and behold, when checking out a friends Exiss, exactly the same problems were found. (and posibly more!)A couple of weeks ago, one of my tie-up rings inside was broken... (yearlings can be pig-headed ;-)I phoned "Bison" and asked them to send me another one. They were very friendly and curtious, and the new tie-up came in the mail yesterday.I hope that this good service continues... I find that the living quarters are well built and I have tons of cupboard space.So, I am pleased at this point, but keeping my fingers crossed.... |

Location: Tipton, IN | Bison doesn't build the LQ, just the trailer. And where manufacturers sometimes cut corners is in areas you can't see once walls are up. I'm glad you like yours and maybe they are turning around. I still like my 1999 Bison, especially with the 2005 LSR conversion in it. |

Location: Casco,Michigan | Excuse me---Bison does their own L.Q.'s !!! A dealer can order an empty shell and send it to whomever to do the L.Q. if they desire to do that---but I'll guarantee you won't get as much for so little !!! Take a closer look at both the Bison AlumaSport and the all-aluminum Stratus---you will find some features that will cost two to three times the amount that Bison charges !! They are doing a lot of things right. They may not be the end-all ---but you can get a lot of features, and still have some "jingle" in your pocket. Zane. |

Location: Tipton, IN | So they fianally went to doing their own LQ's? They weren't when I was at the factory in early-2003. They contracted out, but not on sight at that time. Things change everyday, so thanks for letting me know. I must say, I really do like the all aluminum Stratus with the 10ft. sofa LQ. |

Location: Odenville, Alabama | Bison does do their own LQ. I was at their factory in December 04, and we looked at probably 15 trailers in different stages of LQ completion. I've been VERY SATISFIED with my 05 Bison and the company people have been great answering any and ALL questions I have thrown at them. Also had a great dealer Randy Burmaster at Ken Feagin Truck and Trailer. Nancy |

Location: Brazil, IN | Bison trailers have really stepped it up. We have been very impressed with ours! It would be very hard to find another trailer that compared to it for that kind of money. |
