Pics from RVWholesalers
I picked up my trailer Wednesday morning. The store is located a block off Rt. 33 on Main Street. There isn't much signage but the massive number of RVs visible on both sides of the road mark the spot.
Once
Once you're up the driveway, the building appears.
Inside is a large waiting room with a sign listing all the folks taking delivery that day. It is behind Levi and me. (See the "Wright Ellis")
Your unit will be backed up to the building just to the left of the entrance. It is plugged in for the PDI. There were five trailers lined up Wed. morning.
This is the service manager, Scott, who did my PDI and walk through. That's my truck and trailer. Note the three others in the background waiting their turns.
Behind my trailer is the door to what can only be called a parts warehouse. There are two helpful women working in there to guide you to what you need. This is my buddy Mike buying a hat.
Here you see my truck waiting in front of my new trailer having its hitch installed.
All hooked up and ready to roll.
Now it's time to relax with an adult beverage.
First trip will be at Pocahontas SP near my home in Virginia so my wife, Penny, can get the trailer set up. We live in the city so we must store the trailer where ther's no water or electric. This week will be a shake-down cruise.
Don't hesitate to call Levi Oglesbee if you're thinking of saving a bundle on a new RV. These folks are a brick-and-mortar dealership with a business plan incorporating the internet and volume sales. They treat you like an individual and your time with them is not hurried.
Happy camper,
Wright

Congrats on your new trailer! And thanks for the pics - which for me are a trip down memory lane from our purchase at RVW in 2011.

Oh, yes! The Tundra hauled the trailer up and over many W.Va. mountains and the Blue Ridge w/o any trouble. Towing at 60-65 mph in a strong cross wind most of the 11 hours. Two fuel stop on the trip to Ohio, three stops coming home. (Them Yankees are mighty proud of their gasoline, yessireebob!) The Tundra has a 26 gal. tank. I really pushed it to make Virginia and get to that $3.15/gal. price. Loaded 23 gal.

Sweet. I have a tundra haven't pulled long distance yet but have had to go down the highway once for about two miles and I was very pleased. I had a Titan it did well but my tundra I think is gonna be much better.

We have a 2013 Windjammer 2809 and the tow veh is our 2011 Tundra and I have to say I love it. That truck pulls all day long without a problem. Through the mountains like nothing else. Only thing we can't pass is a gas station. Of course that could be just the way I drive it... Maybe!

I would suggest he call and try and talk to the owners. Durnell brothers. I ordered from them on January 17, and picked on March 11. Personally had a very good experience with RVW as many others have posted here. Best of luck to your son, I hope situation gets resolved and keep us posted.

Yup. In fact Dave Durnell is on this forum. Ddurnell is his username I believe. PM him and I'm sure he will get to the bottom of what's up with your sons TT.
His email is ddurnell@rvwholesalers.com
