What Others Say

DON'T TRUST THIS DEALERSHIP! That is the best advice I can give. They are not close to what they were when I purchased my prior motorhome several years ago. I went there believing they could be trusted and treated people fairly. SO NOT TRUE any longer. I felt I was dealing with a bunch of highschool boys. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!

The dealership can’t be trusted. They promise everything, fulfill nothing, stall, don’t keep their word. There are better dealers. Good luck.

PREDATOR best describes this company that keeps deposits on units that sell very quick .. there sales team are very good at taking advantage of good trusting people after making verbal promises over the phone and getting your 5 k deposit it all changes ... looks like there very good at deceiving the public

Signed a contract to purchase Winnebago View. In the time between signing the contract and pick-up/take possession date I had life events out of my control that prevented me from closing the sale. They gave a few months extension with which I could purchase another RV. Well as life has it that is not going to be possible and they insist on keeping my $5K even though the unit I had contracted for sold immediately after I refused delivery. Cold-hearted, unethical business people. A little GOOD -FAITH goes a long way with customer service which might not always end in a sale. As it stands I wouldn’t buy a bottle of water from them if I was dying of thirst in the desert..

Do NOT deal with this RV Dealership. I purchased a 2015 ERA with 12,000 miles. It had a 60 day 'Certified used' guarentee. I tried to get it in right away for issues. They fixed NOTHING. I love the other post that they just got a blank stare when describing a problem! I believe they are taught to be 'dumb'! When I was finally allowed an appointment they kept my van for 3 days and I was returned a 2014 ERA with MASSIVE problems. I did not discover some until down the road. I was given an appointment but they just could not fit me in until AFTER the 60 day guarentee ran out. I was approched by Stacy, the sales person, who said I COULD return it but ONLY for turn in value!! AND I could ONLY purchase a NEW vehicle. The value of my van dropped from $90,000 to $40,000. So I would have to come up with another $40,000 for a Travato. I have had nothing but problems with this van with I . Believe came from a flood sale. There are two VIN's. All fit and finish are tagged with 2014 dates. If the van body is a 2015 how could it have fit and finish BEFORE manufactured date? When I have ANY work done I am told it is a 2014. It is now sitting with DEF issues with 50,000 miles on it. The exhaust pipe is bent and nearly rubs on the tires. ImANY other BIG problems. Bait and switch! And take advantage of a single woman with cash. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. As to the "follow-up" appointment, you DID make an appointment but were not POSSIBLY able to fit me in until AFTER the 60 day certified pre-owned date was up. Another way to take more of my hard earned money.

After good help in buying. It had 29k miles for a 2019 vehicle Reviewed the photographs some 170 of them and decided this one had way too much wear. Tried to change to another same 74,900 price but it was sold to another. I asked for my down payment back, it was 5000, I realize I made way too big a deposit but was emotionally charged from the recent death of my husband to buy this as the new ones were over 120000. I found out later they could put large discounts on them, but that was not explained to me until I convinced them I was not going to complete the sale. 75 k was my limit and this was 15k over that. I have written and asked for my 5000 back minus a 1300 charge that had not done yet to put coating on exterior and interior. I thought that was fair. Three weeks later that high mileage 2019 is still on market. And they are not talking to me. I was in real estate sales for 36 years and if I had a client that early on could not buy due to their inability to deal with the condition of the property, I always saw that they got their deposit back, and most remained my customers. I wanted to deal with thi.s dealer, close to my daughter in Minnesota but unless I get my money back I feel they are more interested in their current bottom line than future business. If people like you they usually recommend you at least 4 times. And that gets around .If they think you are just following your monthly sale returns and not your customers best interest they tell 12 people. And that really gets around . I will still be in the market later for larger RV but under these conditions could not use these people
