Our RV experience with Carlos was excellent! Carlos exceeded our expectations! The communication with him was first rate, he responded quickly and answered all my questions. The RV was in great condition and the delivery time was right on schedule, matter of fact, I arrived after the delivery and he had met up with our campground host and he setup the RV at our designated location. Carlos explained to us the RV functions and he was thorough and patient with our questions. We highly recommend Carlos for any RV trips! Great job, Carlos!

Carlos arrived ahead of schedule, set up quickly, ran through the vehicle operations and was done. Great work. I was impressed by the professionalism and the efficiency. The removal of the RV was just as efficient.
