Hi,

I noticed the Oxygen campers on the forum. But searches have not turned up any info on the internet.
Where are these made? Do they still make them? What sizes??
Anybody able to give me any info on these?? Any websites?
Thanks for any help!!

Made by Bonair in Canada? Here's a link to an MSN forum discussion. Cute, I think. But apparently didn't make it....

For some reason I think Bonair did make these, but has since gone belly up....

Yes, Bonair did make the Oxygen. We have several members here on FiberglassRV that are owners. I did a quick search and came up with this topic:
I would love to know more about the Oxygen, they appear unique

On edit: then there's this topic, with more inside pictures, etc.:
Just purchased '02 Bonair Oxygen

As I recall, Bonair put a significant amount of resources into the original Oxygen, and all of the first sixteen or twenty had to be recalled for structural issues. They continued R&D to fix those problems. According to the bankruptcy papers found online at the time of their bankruptcy, they put so much effort into the Oxygen that the rest of their line suffered, and there was a dealer backlash. They ran out of cash and good will with their dealers at about the same time. There weren't too many Oxygens produced, as I recall... perhaps a couple of hundred tops over the course of two model years.

I have only seen one. Visually it was quite apealing. The owner didn't keep it very long. He found that because they are wider in the middle it became a real bear to back up when you couldn't see the back half.

Signing on to these groups is too much of a headache. I can't read the security code or understand the audio. So I vote with my feet and won't log on.

Conrad that link is three years old. I'm doubting it's even valid anymore. I think MSN did away with groups too.
