Funny Kirk… Yep…I’m calling two local NRVIA inspectors today. I actually saw a series of videos from RV Masters late yesterday where in one, the guy says the big box stores may not even work on an RV because it wasn’t purchased there! I know when you take a car to the dealership they’ll service it…for a price. What happens on the road if you have to get service and you didn’t buy it there? Sits for weeks? Months? At this point I think we have decided to “rent“ the RV for a couple of days…maybe this week and see what we think. That way I can go over the RV top to bottom while we’re at the campground and make a list of questions for the inspector.I found all the manuals online even though from those videos I now know the wiring and components can be completely different.

Thanks Dan…figured as much. They might be good to buy last minute stuff before hitting the road but yeah…I did hear a bad story about this Camping World but wasn’t 100% sure what the BS factor was on the story.

Greetings All, The wife and I have picked out a 2018 Forest River Class C that just shy of 26’. It’s currently owned by a friend of a friend who lives a couple miles away. The unit looks well cared for but as an ole test pilot I want an inspection, which is fine with the owner. He’s even going to let us rent it for a few days to make sure we like RV life. Have you found it best to have an independent NRVIA inspector do it or a big box shop? There is a Camping World about 10 minutes away with the biggest American flag I’ve ever seen. Just think an independent inspector would be best but have zero experience with any RV business. Will the NRVIA inspector be equally competent on the E450 itself or do I need an auto mechanic as well? As a bonus, anyone know a good inspector in south Jersey? Thanks so much and I hope after gaining some knowledge to help others as time goes by😀
