My First Experience Buying An RV I wanted to say a few words about my positive experience with FretzRV.

I have bought many new cars, but this was my first experience purchasing an RV. Because I am a neophyte RV-er and because I had heard that RV sales has a negative reputation, and because this is a rather expensive proposition, I agonized over this decision for many weeks. I knew very little about the process, and I had doubts about dealing with a company out of state. I emailed Al Papa dozens of times and he always answered my questions and stuck with it even though I must have seemed to be just a curious un-serious person. I know I was a “pain in the posterior.” I visited your facility a few days ago and was very impressed. Al is a very personable guy. Mary and I felt at ease with him from the start. He was very patient. He seemed kind and was genuinely interested in us. He even volunteered to bring water for our dog. I felt as if I was family. When it came to working with Brian Strampel, I was also very impressed. He was able to save us a lot of money and made it easy to purchase the Roadtrek camper, and to register it in New Jersey. I came away thinking, “This guy really knows his stuff.” Actually, this was the first time I’d ever purchased a vehicle where I was at ease and laughing during the process. I never regretted traveling the 89 miles one-way to your company, and I have no reservation in highly recommending you to anyone. Please give my regards to Al and Brian. Ps. I also loved your store.

Very happy with Fretz! We are first time RVers and had done lots of research and visited several dealerships. We went to Fretz because we were interested in a Jayco and the We are first time RVers and had done lots of research and visited several dealerships. We went to Fretz because we were interested in a Jayco and there were two dealerships. One never called back but I got Mike Myers and he was very responsive and patient. After spending time with him and he answered so many of our questions, we were very comfortable with him and there was never any pressure. We bought a fifth wheel and at the same time ordered a Ford truck. The truck was supposed to come in first but was delayed. The Jayco came in right when they said it would. We could not pick it up because we had no truck but Fretz was great about the delay and even let us visit it! Dealing with Mike Myers and Brian Strampel was great. Would happily recommend them! More

I Will Be Back We have never camped, or had a travel trailer and I was a little hesitant to make the move. I was looking locally, but not one had trailers under 22 f We have never camped, or had a travel trailer and I was a little hesitant to make the move. I was looking locally, but not one had trailers under 22 feet. I went online searching for a Travel Trailer and ran across Fretz RV. I wanted something not to big, easy to tow but yet enough room for my wife and possibly an occasional visitor. I spoke with Andrew Long by email, who suggested the Forest River r pod178. It was just what I was in the market for! They just received it from a customer who wanted a larger trailer, and I lucked out. The size was perfect! After going over the unit with questions and several emails, I said I would take it. He then put me in touch with the business manager Brian Strampel, who worked out the details by email. I drove an hour and a half to pick up our new Pod. Mr. Harris Walters greeted me when I arrived, I had inquired about a brake controller and they made arrangements that when I came in to pick up the Pod, they would have a brake controller installed. He took my keys and my truck went to their service department. While that was being installed, being a newbie to the trailering world, he went over the entire camper with me, answering all my questions and concerns. From the water hook up, sewer drain, black tank, grey tank, propane . . . top to bottom, stem to stern. He went over what I would need as a beginner to get started chocks, regulators, black hose, white hose, right down to the toilet paper. When my truck was ready, the service department drove it over and hooked up the trailer again going over everything with me about the brake controller. Before I left, Harris asked me to do him a favor and I asked what is it. He said when you get home to call him just to let him know how I did. I was nervous at first, especially in traffic with all that extra weight behind me, but after driving almost two hours back home, by the time I pulled in the driveway I was fine. The brake controller made a huge difference. The entire staff at Fretz was unbelievably friendly, making me feel very comfortable and putting me at ease, the whole process was painless. I would definitely recommend Fretz RV to anyone in the market for an RV . . . My only complaint is I wish they weren't so darn far from me. More

Not A Happy Camper Fretz RV would receive 0 stars if given the choice. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing!!!! My son and I drove an hour to look Fretz RV would receive 0 stars if given the choice. The right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing!!!! My son and I drove an hour to look at a used R-pod that we had inquired about online if it was still available. They responded it was available and to stop in to see it. We arrived at Fretz about 6:15 pm. on 8.8.2017. We asked for assistance to see the R-pod and Eric Informed us there were customers ahead of us, and the wait time was 15 to 20 minutes for a salesperson. We patiently waited about 15 minutes for Harris to help us. We told him we just wanted to see the R-pod. He said, "is that all you wanted? Someone could have given you the key." He took us to see the R-pod. We chatted for a bit then he left so my son and I could talk privately. When we returned to the showroom, Harris greeted us with a "tell me you want to buy it?" (He could tell by our facial expressions) I said, "yes," and he responds, "we took an internet deposit at 6:OO pm tonight, you CAN'T buy it." Talk about distaste, disgust and displeasure! At this point, we were so disappointed we just decided to walk out, then Harris says you don't want my business card? Are you mad at me? Needless to say, we were not happy campers! During the ride home we searched for the R-pod online thinking Fretz would indicate it as "sale pending." Instead, it continued to allow anyone to make a deposit!!! Fretz RV what kind of shady/unethical practice is this? TAKE NOTE: 1) as we waited in the showroom for a salesman, the R-pod was pictured on the board without a "Hold" sticker. 2) Fretz RV does not indicate a sale is pending on their web page. They continue to take deposits. Fretz RV customer service has DECLINED! Not a nice way to treat a repeat customer or any customer!!!! The Most Unprestigious Dealer Award and Worst Dealer Award goes to Fretz RV!! 8.11.2017 Update - Steve Fretz did try to make good by offering a "new" unit that was similar to the used R-pod but with an UPCHARGE of $5k! Exceeded my budget! More
