Camping World RV Sales

I have to say I’m not big on giving reviews but in this case i felt I should.My wife and I bought a 2020 Rogue toy hauler on Wednesday,it needed a couple things addressed which got handled immediately. I just wanted to say thank you to David Allen for finding this perfect toy hauler for us. We were looking for somewhat of a unicorn as we needed a 20 foot garage.thank you for being so kind and for being a straight shooter. I wish i could say all of my purchases in life were handled in this fashion by the sales person but it seems we also found a unicorn in you. What an amazing experience. Thank you for taking care of our needs Troy and Patty O’Bryant

My experience buying from World Camping Ft Myers was awful. I was ripped off in every way. They charged me a ton of incomprehensible fees, including a pre-delivery preparation fee, all for nothing. They delivered the RV with a damaged, unrepaired wall, and the outlets didn't work when I plugged the RV in. I had to spend an extra $200 on an electrician to replace it. First and last time I buy anything from them, and I won't recommend them to anyone.

This staff is incredible. We left there feeling like family. After a bad experience purchasing our 1st RV from the Ft Pierce location (near our home)… we needed to swap our coach for a new one. Denise was a gem. She helped find a camper with no pressure, but she also took on the task of turning around our experience. And she took it to heart. She checked in on us regularly during a busy holiday weekend to make sure we were in a schedule. She even carted us around while our 2 year son went down for a nap. Oh, and someone had a note on our shore plug to make sure our food stayed fresh. Only people who care go that extra mile. Shout out to Michelle in parts, who worked tirelessly to find us the right hitch in time for our trip….Riccardo, who showed me around the RV and tought me that RVing is THE American industry….scott, who was so kind and showed me how to hitch the new fiver to our pickup truck…and Troy, who made sure our little boy got the last hot dog. Thanks for making our dream come true!!

I still havent finished my purchase here but did appreciate the attention the sales gentleman to what we needed. We weren't sure really what we needed and he took the time to listen, showed plenty of units and was able to narrow it down to functionality, price and immediately and longterm needs. This gentleman's name is Steve Minks and he was a great professional. We are still working with him and are happy with our journey so far.

We used Camping World twice. First time we brought it in for a recall repair. Asked for the entire trailer to be looked over since we would be traveling with our infant for the first time. Asked for it to be cleaned too. When we went to pick it up it took forever to go through that process. I had my infant with us so by the time it was actually ready he was over it and we had to go. I noticed it was no washed and we had a missing screw in a side exhaust. i mentioned it and she said we will fix that - got carried away with the tech and it ended up not being fixed. We also mentioned having issues with one of our slides. This was all in April. Fast forward to last month. We get a call from a new advisor asking to bring the travel trailer in to get that recall fixed. I was so confused, it was supposed to be done in APRIL. It was a bad socket that was a fire hazard. I had my, at that time, month old baby with us. The new advisor is nice. And he was very tentative to these issues and making sure they were resolved. We just got back form another trip, after picking it up and our slide module was bad. Again, I asked for these things to be addressed and they were not. I tried this place twice and will do it a third time. My advice is, if you do use this business be sure to walk through EVERY aspect of what they were supposed to fix and do.

I rarely write reviews, but what happened to me and my family deserves to be shared—because it could happen to you. We bought our RV from Camping World Fort Myers, and just a few months ago, we sold it back to Camping World Fort Pierce. I now regret ever setting foot in a Camping World. The entire experience has cost me over $30,000 in unrecoverable losses, months of stress, broken promises, and a serious hit to my family’s financial stability. ⸻ FORT MYERS LOCATION (PURCHASE): My saleswoman, Cheryl Kimmel, was responsive during the buying process—but the moment we had issues, she vanished. I called, texted, and emailed her seven or eight times for help when my unit began experiencing problems and received zero response. After months of silence, she had the audacity to message me just five minutes ago, saying she "wanted to let some time pass because of how things went." Seriously? When I brought my RV in for service, it sat on their lot for over four months while Chad in maintenance treated me like I was just another number. There was no urgency, no follow-up, no accountability. not to mention constant overlooking of issues. I have zero experience in the RV industry, but I was able to pinpoint problems. Each time I came to pick up my unit after it was "repaired". Needing to be replaced, to the generator kicking out on us multiple times, to the gray and black tank having errors, The RV, not starting in different multiple occasions. Leaving us stranded. With a little more issues that I could keep listing. ⸻ FORT PIERCE LOCATION (SALE): Desperate to get out of the RV and its growing issues, I was connected with Taylor Walldrip, who painted a very misleading picture of my options. She tried to push me into consigning the RV instead of selling it—completely ignoring the fact that Camping World has one of the slowest sales turnovers in the industry. If I had followed her advice, I’d be stuck paying off two loans today. Eventually, I dealt with Alan, who was unprofessional, uncommunicative, and dishonest. He lied to me multiple times about what I could expect from the process. I live over two hours away from this location, and I strongly feel they used that distance to manipulate the situation and take advantage of me. Here’s the kicker: even though I had purchased the RV from Camping World just months earlier, they charged me hundreds of dollars for a roof reseal—an absurd and unnecessary cost considering the unit should’ve never needed that kind of service so soon. That was one of several questionable "repair" charges they forced on me just so they’d agree to take the RV. The RV is still sitting on their lot as of today. Meanwhile, they forced me to cover the difference between my loan and their lowball offer, and walk away with thousands in debt and nothing to show for it. ⸻ Bottom Line: Camping World’s business practices are predatory, misleading, and financially devastating. They don’t care about their customers once the deal is done. Their communication is abysmal, their service departments are incompetent, and their sales reps will feed you false information just to close a deal. They promised a lifestyle—they delivered a nightmare. If you’re reading this and considering doing any business with Camping World: don’t. I trusted them. I paid the price. Don’t let them do the same to you. DO NOT BUY the Fleetwood Bounder 35K If you’re considering a Fleetwood Bounder 35K, please reconsider. This was the model I purchased, and it came with a laundry list of issues almost immediately—from mechanical to cosmetic to infrastructure problems that should not exist on a unit of that price and age. It spent more time in the shop than on the road, and Camping World expected me to foot the bill for issues they should’ve resolved under warranty or acknowledged at the time of sale. It’s a lemon wrapped in shiny paint. Do your research. You’ll thank yourself later.

Update: Docking one star because shortly after getting the camper home and hooking it up to water, I noticed a fairly substantial leak coming from the kitchen side. After inspecting further, I found the water connections for the kitchen sink were leaking badly where the flex hose connected to the PEX. After some online research, I was able to find the proper fitting to fix the issue. While it wasn’t too difficult to resolve, Camping World claims to perform a full systems check on their used campers, and clearly this problem was missed. Thankfully, I caught it before it caused any damage, but it could have been much worse had it gone unnoticed. That said, we had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Cori at Camping World Fort Myers! Buying an RV can be overwhelming, but Cori made the entire process enjoyable. He went above and beyond to show us different options and really listened to what we were looking for. What we appreciated most was his low-pressure approach – he was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely wanted us to find the right RV for our needs. Cori's willingness to go the extra mile made all the difference. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great RV buying experience!
