Funtown is known for not being beaten on price, but that's the only thing they may continue to be unbeaten on. I just made my 3rd and final RV purchase from Funtown. I will gladly pay a few thousand more dollars to buy from any other RV dealer in the future. It began with being rushed to pay a deposit to hold a unit, which I gladly paid in order to secure the RV. However, upon delivery the new RV wasn't ready as there were several issues we discovered. Be warned that they DO NOT check anything on the unit. You are solely responsible for discovering the working condition of any component and then checking and initialing on their form. In fact, you have to initial in an inordinate amount of places on one document. Having grown up with RVs and owning 5 during my adult life, I'm very familiar with how these operate. I feel sorry for the novice/amateur RVer now forced to make these discoveries or be faced with the fact that "Funtown does not make service calls", which you also acknowledge several times. Of course, you can bring the RV back to them for a repair, but if you haven't heard, they are notorious for keeping you RV for weeks if not months for repairs. So, it's in your best interest to take your time at delivery to find everything you can. After discovering the issues we found, they were quick to jump into action, but not without some side comments/rumblings from the PDI manager that we were "expecting too much". I'm sorry, but I just wanted the windows to operate correctly, for the awning lights to actually turn on (which immediately failed to turn on the first night out/same day as delivery), and for a missing chunk of wood to be replaced on the island. Also, I had to accept a small price reduction for their failure to upgrade the AC, that I was promised in the deal. In fact, I was told during delivery that the unit had been changed and upgraded as promised, however after I climbed on the roof and checked the serial number with the manufacturer, I discovered that the unit had NOT been changed. They lied about it to my face and then expected me to be ok because what was I going to do at this point. Yes, I was offered the ability to return the RV and have them make the upgrade later, but remember what I said earlier...I do not want to have Funtown store my RV while I wait an exorbitant amount of time for them to make some repair/upgrade. All in all, I would not suggest them to anyone. Yes, they have more inventory and you may save a few thousand bucks, but for me, I'll GLADLY pay more with someone else.
