President's Message

Anytime we bump into an old friend or meet a new one that discovers we are in the RV industry inevitably the first question, these days, that comes up is “The price of gas must sure be affecting the sale of RV’s?” Here’s my answer “ Interesting enough our sales have been increasing the last 2 years at a rate of 15% annually, however this year that has changed, because our sales are up 20% this year”. With the strong Canadian dollar our RV’s have never been more affordable and the wonderful thing about RV’ing is that, not only is it still (by far) the most inexpensive holiday for a family to take, you don’t have to travel far to fully experience the relaxing lifestyle RV’ing offers. This is especially true on Vancouver Island where forests, rivers, lakes, and ocean parks are abundant (and we are hearing of many more developments on the go). Often getting away for the weekend to your favourite camp spot is just a 15-20 minute drive and it is not uncommon for Dad or Mom to commute to work during the week from the campground so the family can enjoy the extra time and whoever is working can quickly slip back into holiday relax mode, daily, upon their return to camp.

And.... not only have we further sharpened our pencils for our 20th Annual Sizzling Summer Sale Pricing we have partnered with Vancouver Island Co-op’s, so you can “Have a GAS this Summer, On Us”.
