No more Total value RV?

[tj3829]

Hi all.
Just went to Total value RV website to just look around. Well, To my surprise
they no longer exist. They are now a LazyDays rv dealer.

When did this happen? And Why?

[taylorbob1]

When? 2-3 months ago was reported on this Forum

Why? $$$$

I have not been here for a while. Hard to believe it was that long ago since I last logged in. Thanks for update.

I think LazyDays saw this as an opportunity to expand their network of locations, and also give them a great location RIGHT NEXT to most all of the manufacturers that they buy from. It's actually quite interesting that there are not more RV dealers actually IN the Elkhart area... only a few small ones comes to mind, and one right up the street from TotalValue...

Had work done on my 2015 Axis 24.1 by Total Value RV the end of August. They were in the process of being acquired by LazyDays at that time. Same folks, different name. Very pleased with the work performed. $ well spent.

I hope they continue to post video's of RV's. They always had in-depth descriptions of motor homes. Honestly I learned more from their video's than I did from the PDI when I purchased my RV's.

There aren't more dealers because the customer base in the area is limited. Folks that build them don't want to buy them and the number of folks willing to travel hundreds of miles to buy an RV are limited.

Dealers go where the market is and the sales market is not in Amish country.

I will add this most folks that build them don't get paid enough to buy one.

I was referred to that [site] in my search for a new dashboard on a 1995 Thor Residency, so anyone can imagine my surprise when I found "just another dealerships website."

Thor themselves referred me there, but I doubt that whoever sent me the info probably didn't know what was happening with a [small] dealership down the road.

At least I really want to give them the benefit of the doubt...

Right. Moving on...
