I found it strange that River City was part of the CW family since there is an existing Camping World of Little Rock (actually located in North Little Rock) less than 10 miles from the River City location.
Today, a TV ad started playing announcing the Grand Opening of Gander RV of Sherwood, at the former River City Recreation location.
Why would Marcus have two RV sales and service location within 10 miles of each other, especially in a metropolitan area of about 700,000?

Simple, they are buying up any RV dealer that is willing to sell so they can capture the market. For motorized RVs I now have one dealer within 100 miles that is not affiliated with CW. There were three other bought by CW and one of them has been shuttered.
Bottom line is it's a business and CW has to keep their share holders happy by making money.
