Don't leave any of your gear behind either when you can easily store it in the climate controlled drop frame storage area. On the exterior, you'll find a heated utility convenience center, an outside sprayer to keep the dirt outside where it belongs, and magnetic compartment door holds to keep them from falling on you as you grab your items. Plus, there are some modern features that will really seal the deal like the Wi-Fi Booster with 4G LTE capability prep, upgraded true solid-surface countertops, power theater seating with USB charging, and a 260W solar panel for off-grid camping!

As demand for the Palomino grew, Mr. Landey felt it would benefit his company, Vanguard Ind., to relocate. With most manufacturers and industry suppliers located in the Elkhart, In. area the move eastward seemed logical. Vanguard Industries settled in the community of Colon in 1972. Once in Colon he began to put his plans in motion. By 1973 he had built the main production facility and within days Palomino tent trailers were rolling out the doors.
In 1976, Vanguard added its own Needle Division, in 1978 its own Metal Fabrication Plant, and has several cold storage facilities. On May 27, 1992, the primary production building and offices were destroyed by fire. By late August, 1992, the first 1993 model Palomino rolled of the line in the new 52,300 sq. ft. facility, which was built on the same site as the previous building had been.
The year 1998 continued to see expansion with the addition of a new 75,000 sq. ft. production facility, and another storage facility. In 2002 Vanguard was purchased by Forest River, Inc. This allowed for rapid growth and the introduction of two new towable lines of travel trailers and fifth wheels, Puma and Sabre by Palomino.
