    Dealership & Spare Tire

    When we bought our new Salem about 6 weeks ago the sales team told us there would be a spare in the front storage before we took delivery. Good to their word there was one and as a bonus it was an upgraded ply from the OEM Castle Rocks. In my last week of preps for summer travel I decided to...

    Warranty Repairs - How long should they take?

    Today marks 3 months and one week since I took my Qunatum 31WS for repairs. This was the second attempt to get these items repaired as they did the 90 Days repairs (which failed due to bad parts from Thor). My RV is being held hostage due to parts not available from THOR! My questions are...

    Well, after 8 years of wonderful adventures in our amazing 20 foot Mini Lite, my gal and I are moving up in the world... we are buying a Mini Lite that adds 4 additional feet to get to the bathroom at night, a 2205s. The hunt is done, the deal is a wrap. We are waiting on cooperative weather to...

    Winterizing my trailer at the dealer service lot.

    Brought my trailer in for some minor repairs about 2 months ago. Due to parts and labor shortages, it's still there. Since one of the repairs is to the plumbing, I didn't bother winterizing it before it went up thinking I'd have it back long before the real cold weather set in. Well, here we are...

    Chevy Dealer or RV Shop - Base Plate Installation?

    We're getting our new-to-us Sunseeker DS3010 tomorrow. I'm 99% sure I'll be getting a Chevy Colorado Z71 4x4 as a dinghy for longer trips. I read through the Blue Ox instructions for installing the base plate as part of the towing system. Looks like more than I want to tackle with a lot of...

    Why so few dealers?

    The Dynamax factory is closer than any Ontario dealer to me (there are 2 over by and in Quebec 6hrs away). Is this something to do with FR? There is a guy selling those near by but I believe there is a market for high end stuff - its just marketing that is lacking, big time - fortunately I...

    Shoutout to a great dealer

    We just took our 2021 Wildwood FSX in for its annual maintenance service and the Forever Warranty checkup. I had been told 3 to 6 weeks over the phone but had made our appointment 8 months ago, so we were moved to the front of the line. Had we of got there earlier, it would have been prudent to...

    Ford Changing Dealership Model for EV's

    https://techcrunch.com/2022/06/02/ford-wants-to-sell-evs-online-only-and-at-a-set-price/ Needless to say many Dealers aren't happy. As I read this there will be no more huge flooring plans where the Dealer orders what he thinks will sell, usually more fully loaded vehicles than basic. They...

    Sell to dealer vs. consignment

    I'm selling my class C RV and toad. Selling to a dealer sounds straightforward. Consignment... why would I do that if I could just sell to the dealer? It seems like it would have to end up with a good deal more money in my pocket to be willing to take on the risk of them being able to sell it in...

    Cell Booster Dealer Install 2021 2911BS

    Just had the dealer install a Winegard Cell Booster on my 2911BS. I am pretty certain they did a terrible install but thought I'd ask on here since I'm not an RV mechanic. I would have thought the cable would have been run inside the RV and not along the roof. Am I wrong?

    RAM dealers have limited filter inventory

    At my local dealer in the North DFW area, huge market for trucks, but they have no fuel filters in stock and have to send out to another dealer. Service Advisor says this is increasingly a problem. So if you have driven distance to get a service, the suggestion is that you/I stock up on the...

    Schwintek (now by Lippert) dealer warranty work

    Forgive me, this is not a ForestRiver Trailer, but I don't want something like this to happen to anyone else. My Sonic 231VRL trailer by Venture RV developed a stripped gear in the Schwintek slide system. Coming in, at the end of the slide movement, the bottom rear gear would make a horrible...

    RV Dealers Fed-up with Quality

    Read this article this morning. I was dismayed, but expected something like this based on the complaints I've read on this forum. I'm sure the RV industry is not the only one affected by a lack of willing skilled workers...
