So in my quest for an R Pod (ill be picking up tomorrow). I narrowed it down to 3 dealers. I was looking for the whole package in a dealer. Good customer service, dealership, service etc. from the several dealers that I was researching, I narrowed it to 3.
Here goes...
Chilhowee RV in Alcoa. Sucked!!! great facilities, great communication however, the sales man Ron quoted my wife and I a price. When I was ready to go for it, he changed the price by $1600 MORE!!! No way, I didn't just fall off the turnip truck. So I respectfully declined and moved on.
It came down to Camper World in Chattanooga and A and L RV in Johnson City, TN. The sales guy in Chattanooga, seemed very shady and also pushy. I don't like that. Trust me, they had great facilities and all. The communication was good, but the sales man was very cocky, arrogant and pushy. One of those used car salesmen types.
A and L RV not only matched Camper world's price, but beat them because they don't have all those shady fees like Camper World had. The communication has been awesome, customer service spectacular, and the dealership is phenominal.
Needless to say, we went with A and L. Crystal has been great. Phillip has been awesome and I will absolutely work with them in the future if needed.
So the best R-Pod dealer east of Nashville in my opinion is A and L. They're great!
like mentioned before, I'll pick mine up tomorrow morning at 9!
