If you look at the video, 'refurbished' shows it includes painting also. Which would mean it was in really bad shape. Most used RV's do not require repaints.
I called them and 'they' told me that along with tradeins and rental turn ins, they also buy totaled, water and fire damaged RV's and ""refurbish" them. And according to them, NO they are not required to tell you. So I passed on looking at RV's from them.
On this I call total BS and totally false and misleading.
Cruise Americas Refurbish location in Phoenix Arizona only refurbishes their units for resale,all others that are totaled,or fire or water damaged are sold at auction for other companies or the public to repair.
Most states require that a seller must inform a buyer if a there is a salvage title from a totaled or damaged vehicle.
Another wives tale is that they pull the house unit off and put a newer chassis under it from a wrecked unit,this practice was stopped in the mid 1970s.
Where YOU there when I called them?
I was talking directly to the manager of the store I called and that is exactly, verbatim, what he said to me when I asked him. There are 122 locations and the one I called, he said they do buy them from the auctions and refurbish them.
YOU stop calling forum members liars when you know nothing about what transpired. :R:R
I passed this information on to the OP based on my personal experience with cruise america, NOT you.
That's interesting:h. According to their old parts manager the refurbish crew at loved it when something would get totaled out. From their point of view, one less unit to refurbish, little alone Cruise buying outside of their own Corp structure from other places that needed refurbished.
