American RV customer response

My wife and I found your web site while shopping on-line earlier this spring.  After checking out your web as well as as a few others, we even took a weekend to travel through part of Michigan and check out the different dealers and their reception with the public.  We were impressed with both the people we met at your location as well as your inventory.  At the completion of the trip your location was the dealer we decided to go with. Having owned a Cougar 5th wheel for a number of years, we wanted to stay with the Keystone line and therefore the only question was “which model had the floor plan we thought we needed?”…………This brought us to the Mountaineer 326RLQ.  The salesman we dealt with was more than helpful when it came to helping us with the special order that we decided to make due to the options that we wanted…Canadian compliance, duel pain glass, washer/dryer, extra roof vent fans in the bath and bedroom and a CLASS 3 hitch on the rear.

2nd time buyers still happy

“We just really love our new Passport Express. Each camping trip, we enjoy it more and more! Our rep was Jim Snyder. We purchased our Sea Pine pop up from him in 2006. So we contacted him again when we started to look at travel trailers. In our opinion, he is the very best. All departments are very organized and efficient. We appreciate that in this day and time.”

“This is our first time buying a travel trailer and it has been an excellent experience! The demo process is invaluable for answering all of our questions. Thank you!”

Happy Coleman Customers

As you know, we purchased a Coleman Avalon pop-up from American RV.  Jon Kortman was our Sales Consultant.  Jon is a very personable individual and very knowledgeable when it comes to campers.  He answered our questions and provided information in pleasant, no pressure manner.  It was refreshing to have a person in Jon’s position (sales) treat us as “fellow campers” rather than pitch a high pressure sale.  I have and will continue to recommend Jon and American RV to our friends who might be interested in buying a camper.  We genuinely enjoyed our purchase process at American RV.  Everyone from sales to  unit orientation (unexpected Plus!) were very decent, helpful and polite.  Again, it was the friendly nature of the staff that made the process enjoyable.  I would not change a thing with the process…you are lucky to have such a crew in this day and age!

We are happy to have done business with American RV…it was a very pleasant experience from start to finish. We are excited with our new camper and are already planning events for next year!

Kindest Regards,

Jon & Ruth Overway and Family


Another Happy Roadtrek Customer

Hi Robert,
As you know, Pam and I purchased a Roadtrek 210 Popular from you back in October of last year. The weather turned cold before we had an opportunity to use it. Our “maiden voyage” was in January when we took a 6 week trip traveling 7400 miles out West without having any opportunity to become familiar with our new RV. When you make a major purchase such as this, there is always that thought, “Did we make the right decision”? There is no doubt that we made the right choice. We have never had an RV before and this camping stuff was all new to us. I was concerned if I really knew what I was doing, etc. only to find out that I didn’t. I ended up calling the Service Department at American RV several times while on our trip and talked to Kirk. Each time he was extremely patient with me and extremely helpful. He made sure that I was comfortable in calling him again if I had any questions. I couldn’t have been more pleased with Kirk and your Service Department. Another concern was with the amount of storage in our Roadtrek for an extended trip like that. (We never seem to leave anything behind, if you know what I mean!!) We had plenty of storage room with extra to spare. Our Roadtrek handled remarkably well. We were able to drive into downtown areas of major cities and see sights that we wouldn’t have been able to see with a larger RV. All in all, we are delighted with our new Roadtrek and American RV, had a wonderful time on our trip, and are looking forward to our next adventure! Thanks for everything!

Grateful Roadtrek Customer

Dear Ron,

It is the season of Thanksgiving and we wanted to express our sincere gratitude to you for putting the deal together to see our Roadtrek. We know that this is a difficult time to sell RVs and we appreciate your efforts in getting this done.

We also want you and your employees to knwo that our entire experience with American RV over the last 3 plus years has been very positive. Your sales and service departments are superior. They were sensitive to our situation and the distance we had to drive for service. There were a number of phone calls to Kirk during this time and he was always very patient. He took the time to make sure that our concerns were addressed properly.

We are sure that you have a lot of satisfied customers and you can count us among them. If we can ever be of assistance in providing a testimonial for American RV, please let us know.

Again, thanks for making our Roadtrek experience very enjoyable.

Sincerely,
Bob & Linda L

Praises from Thunder Bay, Canada

It’s a good news day for us! — two newly retired Canadians from the great white north! We arrived home safely with our ‘new to us’ 2003 Cedar Creek 38 CKQS fifth wheel! We’re thrilled with this coach, but just as much with the American RV experience we had. Right from the time we said “we’ll take it”, with pictures from the internet and other testimonials to support our decision..our salesman Matt Olds made our purchase seamless. We saved several thousand dollars by taking the trip to Michigan, and the customer service we experienced was stellar. From the moment we walked through their door, and saw “Congratulations to the Ironside’s on the purchase of their fifth wheel”, we both were smiling. The sense of family permeates this dealership and their attention to detail blew us away. Nothing was ‘too much trouble’ it seemed…and all this in the middle of their participation in a huge RV show in Grand Rapids at the same time! We can’t say enough about how kind they all were to us – Matt, Kirby, Joe, Hank, Scott, Chad, Owner Ron, Mike, Doug, and Win.ALL of these consummate professionals treated us like family. We can’t say enough about them all. The paperwork made our trip through the border easy..and now we look out on this beautiful unit…and count the days until we wind our way to the sun…Thanks American RV! And Canadians? This dealership is the real deal! Don’t hesitate to make the trip. You won’t be sorry you did. They’re the BEST!

Sincerely,
Dawn and Ken Ironside,
Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada


Heartfelt Thanks to American RV

To Ron Neff and staff:

We would like to convey a heartfelt thank you to Matt Olds for his help, guidance and assistance in the purchase of our RV (Sabre 5th wheel model 31 RETS). From the first contact, he was courteous, professional, friendly, patient and quickly responded to all our questions and requests without hesitation. He kept us informed on how things were progressing and sent us a whole set of pictures of the unit once it was finished. We also greatly appreciated him taking the time to come meet us on his day off since we had come from a long way to pick up the unit. Thank you to Robb Kortman for his assistance on that day also. As I was at first very hesitant to buy so far from home, I am now completely confident in your company thanks to these two outstanding employees. We are very impressed with how clean the unit was and have not found anything so far except a minor scratch which is to be expected. We have many friends who have purchased RV’s and they were not prepped nearly as well as this one. I commend your staff for this as well. I’m confident that when we start using it in the spring, we will still be as satisfied. If not, I’m sure Matt will assist us with any problems that come up as he’s already assured us that he’s just an e-mail or phone call away.

Thank you again and continued success to you and your staff!

Thank you for your Support

American RV,

Thank you so much for your support of the Byron Center Marching Band. While we drove past your sign and saw that it said “Good Luck at State Byron Center Marching Band” it put a smile on our faces that people wanted us to do well.

Thanks again for your support,

The Byron Center Marching Band


Great Buy!

Our thanks goes to Matt Olds and Win Merrill for a great experience. We knew which brand and model of camper we wanted and we started shopping price across the nation. Without any haggling Matt Olds beat everybody’s price by more than a thousand dollars. Win Merrill then obtained financing for us which also beat anything we could obtain locally. When we arrived at their beautiful dealership, our camper was parked inside and had been fully prepped. They walked us through all the camper features and made sure we were comfortable with how everything worked. We would recommend Matt Olds and American RV to everyone. We know that any future rv purchases we make will be made at American RV. Thanks Matt.
