:) The dealer I go to is very small & has low overhead & they pass the savings along.... Low labor rates, deals on new units.
But when I go I do not act like a know it all, I do my homework, but they have set prices so no negotiating & have customers coming from hundreds of miles....
To look at the shop it looks like a dump but they do great work, the supplies are somewhat organized but not really...... The saying you can't judge a book by its cover applies here. The building is an old VW dealership from the 1970s nothing fancy.
The owner bought the last 17 units from a defunct RV manufacturer .....cash & is selling the of at a tremendous savings.
I have bought two campers from them & had plenty of service work there...... It is just the owner & 3 full time employees & probably do the volume of some large dealers... The two "sales people also do light maintenance as well.
Bottom line is they are less than 5 miles from home. If I need a part I will pay a little extra from them just to keep up with what is going on so they know me. They are a great bunch. :B
