Dealers - good and bad

I won't mention a name, but the dealership where I bought my 'C', goes in the "good" category. Maybe "great". Sales as well as service. I was trading in my 'B' (from another dealer) for a new 'C'. They discussed all the options, including what were "must haves", "nice to haves" and "fluff". I ordered. When it came in, they called and told me to bring a friend along to take notes. The walk through took about two hours, and I had notes for everything that was said.
About a month later, I was invited to a meeting of people that bought a new RV in the last month or two. It was in one of their repair garages and they had an A, C, 5er and TT there, along with several tables lined with accessory items. (Also coffee and doughnuts). They discussed many things that were common to any type of RV, then divided us up according to what we had purchased. With only 4 or 5 people in each group, we were able to ask all of our questions.
Then we reformed as a group. They called out a number and if it was yours, you could pick up any accessory item on the tables for free. A six pack of black tank cleaner. Hoses, both input and output, kitchen and bathroom supplies, etc.
And even though they now only sell TTs and 5ers, they continue to service MHs if you bought it there. Affordable and excellent service is a rare find these days.
Retired and visiting as much of this beautiful country as I can.

I don't mind naming my dealer, Lazy Days in Tucson AZ. I had great sales and financing support during our purchase. Unfortunately, they also provided the most inept, unprofessional and rookie service department I've ever experienced.

Post names, please. The dealer deserves that pat on the back. Maybe other dealers will take the hint and everyone will benefit.

Name names. I think others need to know the good dealers too. Sounds like you have one of the good guys.

X-2, this Dealer should be a roll model for all dealerships! And if their service/warranty department is as good, the owner should be elected president.
