I don't believe i have ever transacted with a more deceitful dishonest organization in my life. The state that they make their money off of, financing, warranty, upgrades and service while selling at a price higher than the agreed price and keeping the difference. They rarely return phone calls. They make empty promises and delay paying you once your rv is sold and delivered. read more

the entire sales and resulting service experience was atrocious. DO NOT let them charge you $995 for a "pre-inspection" as ours was a power wash on the day of the sale. They kept falling all over themselves and never made one thing right. STAY AWAY. read more

Don't, Just Don't. Don't call there, Don't go there. Don't look at the Website. Don't even drive by there. Don't say their name three times in a row. Don't even think about buying an RV there or having your RV serviced there. Evil lurks within the confines of the property. All who work there, with the exception of the last person I talked to, Tiffany, are folks who could absolutely care less about you. They are not capable of uttering a truthful word. Do yourself a favor. If you really must have an RV, go to General RV. While the list of names is long, the emails are long, the minutes spent on the phone with them is long, I am not going into detail with names, issues, dates, lies spoken might be interesting to you, trust me when I say its not worth it. The only name i will give is the Owner, Denver Beck. I reached out to him when all else had failed and...........crickets............. read more

Avoid Optimum RV. I thought I found my perfect motorhome. it was supposed to be serviced, with new awning fabric, new batteries and 8n top shape. I looked at it and put down $5000 deposit. when I went back to test drive it; it would not start. they had to jump start it. the generator would not start. second visit they told me the gas was low so it would not start. how could I test drive it with no gas? there was a bracket underneath that barely cleared the street (maybe 5 inches.) we suggested they put larger tire on it to correct that problem but "it was normal" they said. I walked away in late July and I still do. not have my $5000 deposit back. although they did put larger tires on. it and sold it to someone else. they want your money and nothing else. service guys looked under the influence. read more

Update: they are refusing to pay damages. DO NOT CONSIDER consigning or buying it will be your worst mistake. Optimum was going to sell our unit for us. We were supposed to get a detailed report on our RV and we never did. After Helene we tried to contact them to see if our RV sustained any damages from the storm. Crickets. We then said we were don't and coming to get our RV early to try another dealership due to lack of communication and holding up their end of the deal. When my husband arrived he found that the flooring had been damaged when a salesman had thrown the stair pin on the floor and closed the slide in on it. UPDATE 11/13/24: The general manager is refusing to pay the damages stating it's part of the contract and that he was never made aware of the incident by the manager that checked us out that day. Very unprofessional. Huge disconnect and lack of communication. read more

Trust the reviews. This place is pretty terrible. Their consignment process is a cash grab and total joke. The communication is absolutely awful. They lost the keys to my RV and didn't tell me until the day we FINALLY got to pick it up (which was a nightmare). Just bad. Go somewhere else. Anywhere else. read more

This is the first time I have written a negative post about a business, but they have left me no choice. People need to be aware of a businesses like this. Go somewhere, but more importantly anywhere else. Horrible customer service and deceptive practices from the financial and vehicle prep side of the business. We flew down to Florida and they clearly knew we were coming, yet it still took 4.5 hours to get out of the place. When we got home we called and emailed requesting additional information on our warranty, you guessed, no response after multiple attempts. The biggest issue, the product isn't what it was represented to be. I am in the process of filing formal complaints with the State of Florida and any other agency that I can identify. We had mechanical issue right out of the gate and pretty much the entire trip back home. I did have an ok experience with the master mechanic as he had to walk me through the issues and a process that they should've handle but didn't address. They made sure they charged us for it though. Our salesperson was a nice guy that came across as someone that was really trying to do the right thing. He should go to work elsewhere that allows him to succeed and not be collateral damage because other people can't manage to do their jobs. Unfortunately, I got comfortable with the salesperson. Personal life lesson for me and confirmation that finance managers are horrible until proven otherwise. Again, stay away from this dealership and you'll be better for it. read more

We recently purchased a brand new motorhome from camping world. In the two months we owned it, it was always in the shop. We had absolutely horrible service so we decided to get rid of it. We went to optimum Rv, my sales guy was Andre. Andre was amazing, he listened to what I wanted and out of all the motorhomes on their lot he took us right to what we wanted. He stayed with us through the whole negotiations and finance process. Jason did our walkthrough, he was very knowledgeable and patient. He took his time to go over detail with us until we felt comfortable driving it home. As someone who has purchased a few camper's I highly recommend Andre ant optimum Rv in Ocala Fl. read more

Optimum RV - Our new camper - RV Dealers Near Me - Ocala, Florida

They are liars! I would give them a negative number if I could. I wasted almost all morning talking to Taylor Kittle about them buying my RV. He said he could help me with them buying it. Then after a lot of questions he tells me my only option is consignment!! Then he said he didn't lie. Well, evading telling the truth is the same as lying! THEIR WEBSITE SAYS NOTHING ABOUT NOT BEING ABLE TO PURCHASE BASED ON AGE!! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!! read more

what a dump a bunch of used motorhomes here's the kicker want to charge you 2500 for shipping on stuff they either took on trade or got at auction and 4000 for prep and walk thru of unit you buy stay away read more

Buyer Beware! If zero was possible, that would be my ranking. Our 9 month saga: 7/29/24 purchase. We paid cash. Sales person asked if "I would be willing to finance for at least 6 months for his kick back from the bank". 8/6/24 four wait for pick up when we had a scheduled appointment. Useless walk through. 8/7/24 texted pictures of interior damage 9/30/24 warranty appointment Many months of no contact. Employees no longer working there. Our not reassigned twice. No one answers phone or returns voice messages including service and general manager. Constant hounding on our part. 5/12/25 repairs complete. If you buy there, you are on your own as they don't care. read more

Let's just say this, one of the worst experiences I have ever had buying anything. I would avoid this place at all cost. I called about a fifth wheel and started to work a deal with them and after a couple hours they said they would send me over the paperwork so I could give them the deposit on the unit. Waited a couple hours and asked for the paperwork, they never sent it and then they closed. Called three next morning and asked for them to send me paperwork so that I could send the deposit l, again they never send it over after we agreed to everything. Called again about two hours later said they were working on it. Called again a couple hours later asking for the paperwork after they told me to stop working with other dealers on prices. Finally got a text back saying they sold the unit to someone else for more. Needless to say we were pretty upset but a couple hours later they called me back saying they would like to sell it to me. We found out it's because the other peoples finance fell through so they're trying to kiss but to try to get me to buy the unit again. So we did ended up buying it but this is where it gets worse. We found multiple issues with the unit and did a walk-through after driving 4 hours to do an inspection. We filled out the install paperwork and we scheduled to come back up a couple days later and they said they would have it fixed and ready to go. We arrived to do the final walk through 20 mins early. The guy that did the walk through with us showed up 35 mins late and we were rushed through the walk through. There were still multiple issues with the unit when we got done on the final walk through. They also said they would clean the unit which was not done, the roof was horrible (pictured included). We went to hitch the unit up and the battery died. We found out they had a bad battery in it and they only had one when the unit was supposed to have two. They were replaced after waiting another 2 hours. We had to write down multiple issues that they said would be fixed at a later date. We bought the unit in the beginning of July and we have called more the 15 times and they always say our server lady is busy and would call us back and NEVER has. The unit had molding pulled away and they were supposed to fix it, they just shot staples through the front which didn't go all the way in and were hanging out everywhere. We called the manufacturer for parts so we can just do it out self and we went to get a fan motor parts number and the motor was taken out by them and never put back in when they were supposed to fix it. When we finalized the paperwork there was an issue with the first bank so they had to find another bank l, when we got the paperwork back they tried to up our apr buy like 4% which we caught and made them go back and change it. With everything they do they try and steal more and more from you. There is so much more to this story but would take forever. JUST GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. read more

Had signed a contract and changed our minds. They without question released us from the contract and returned our deposit. Thanks Brandon

We were greeted nicely, but the main building alone is a turnoff. The poor staff has old, mismatched furniture. It does not look professional at all. The waiting area even has torn up seats. Decided to give it a chance, but left with zero interest. New and used rv's (while there are a lot), are not even set up well. Soooo many that are not level...leaning one way or another. Unpaved grounds with pot holes and overgrown areas... read more

I cannot give no starts but I would if I could. I was negotiating an offer and had it all set up for an insection. The day the inspection was to happen...14 minutes before the inspector got there I got a text telling me that the unit had sold the day before. I had contacted them the day before late in the day to make sure everything was all in order for the inspection and they said nothing about it being sold. Incredibly unprofessional group. Do not do business with these people!! read more

I would love to give it less stars but I can't. Long story short. I was dealing with an estate for a friend. Everything seemed to be fine when I signed the deal and listed it. It didn't sell and I am not saying that has anything to do with them. HOWEVER.. WHAT HAPPEND NEXT IS HORRIBLE. I arranged to come pickup the RV. Since I was unsure if it would make it from Florida back to Arizona, I set a specific date to pick it up and was told it would be ready at 10 am. I drove my vehicle, planning to tow it back as a precaution. I arrived and the RV was not pulled and ready as indicated. I waited hours for it to get pulled. I kept asking them as I not only needed to get the car carrier but i had to start on my way back to Arizona as I only took a few days off of work. I had to cancel the car hauler at one location because they were closing. I found another and put the deposit down on it. Back to the go to get the RV. Turns out it had a bad starter and they never checked it. They can't tell me when they will get it done but it will be several days. So now i drive back to arizona without the RV. Fast forward to a week later. I contact someone to pick up the RV and am told i have a balance to pay. Unknown to me as they said nothing about a balance when I arrived. It takes them a two months to get me an invoice which includes service for something I never approved. I have the Trust Attorneys reach out to them and they investigate. A week later they inform me that it's not for service.. It is actually for storage. $25 per day. They would not allow me to pickup the RV one week after I was unable to get it because of charges due. They were not able to tell me what the charges were for two months.. Racking up the $25 per day fee.. So now we settled, as I need to get this over with, for $2k in storage fees that are 100% due to the fact they did not have the RV ready , as promised, and failed to give me any sort of invoice for two months!!! read more

Sales person Marshall was fantastic and very helpful and knowledgeable! But James was not helpful at all! Both my husband and I both have excellent credit. However, James the finance manager wanted us to put down $5k as a "deposit" without even providing any terms, interest rates, monthly payments etc! We stated we wanted the terms prior to providing any deposit or money down. James informed us he would call us the next day. No phone call. We waited 3 days and still nothing. We called and still no answers. We informed them we were no longer interested in the motor home we were looking at. We noticed they continued to run our credit after they initially did. We froze our credit. And once again we were informed them we were no longer interested it the unit and we were looking at another unit elsewhere! read more

Optimum RV - RV Dealers Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Avoid Optimum RV - Shady, Disorganized, and Untrustworthy I had an absolutely terrible experience with Optimum RV when consigning my RV with them. From the start, their communication was nonexistent--I rarely received updates, and they made little to no effort to actually sell my RV. It felt like they had no real interest in moving it, and I was completely left in the dark. Then, months later, they had the audacity to try and charge me $2,400 for basic repairs--nothing major, just simple fixes that should have cost a fraction of that. On top of that, they doubled the markup on my RV, clearly trying to squeeze out as much profit as possible at my expense. To make matters worse, their manager proved just how unprofessional they are. While I was still on the phone (though he thought I had hung up), he started talking trash about me to his coworkers. That level of disrespect and incompetence is unbelievable, especially from someone in a leadership position. If you value your time, money, and property, do not trust these guys. They are disorganized, shady, and completely unprofessional. There are far better RV consignment companies out there--stay far away from this one. read more

I wish I would have read the reviews before we bought our camper there. The hidden fees & BS warranties cost us $41,000 for a & 25,000 unit. Thank God I was able to cancel the warranties. I'm not dumb, but after keeping us there for so many hours I just wanted to get it done. Make sure you see ALL the numbers before you sign anything. And...a salesman had the audacity to call me a few months ago to inquire if we were still in the market. That poor man got an earful. read more

I will never go back to this place for any reason; wish I could say better, but nothing about my experience with this company was positive. The only exception was Ryan, the one guy who was honest, hard-working, and a true professional ... who they got rid of. read more

I would not give them any stars if possible. I met with Will Goodman to look at a Newmar coach worth 250k I had concerns with the way the rv shook when driving. Well make sure you read all these reviews before dealing with this company. I should have read more and BELIEVED them. When I had my concerns after driving the rv Will had me sign a "WE OWE" aggrement stating the issues found and with that aggrement I had to put $5000.00 down or they would not even touch the rv to make any repairs to interest me in purchasing the rv. We after we discussed tires Will plain told me if we have to put a set of tires on it we will.You put the 5k down and we will fix it. Period or we will give you your money back. Well that turned out to be a huge LIE. After I left after leaving 5k as a good faith toward them repairing the rv to my liking so we could purchase everything just stalled. They repaired the few minor cabinet repairs that I could have done in an hour. But the biggest concern that I clearly stated to Will was the shaking when driving. Optimum took it to their guy and stated the rv still shook after getting tires balanced and that it was supposed to shake. This will be my fourth rv and none of them shake as I am in the tire and repair business and all my rvs drive like a dream. Wll after they said they could not repair it I tried to help and found a tire store close to them and they said they would take a look at it. after the tech put on 2 tires and said the other tires were out of round and it needed more tires. I had not got off the phone with the tires store when Will texted me from Optimum and said they were picking up the rv and it drove smooth as can be. Now why would the tire store guy tell me different. We were suppose to drive down june 14th to trade our newmar and pick up the newer one. Being skeptical I flew down instead and to my instincts the rv just still shook. We went back to the store and I was unhappy. I was tired of the back and fourth with the sales manager so Will got Rich Wosnoski one of the sales managers. As I stated to Rich what was discusse on the we owe aggrement Rich clearly stated the rv was in ready to go condition and if I did not take it I would not get my money back. I asked 3 times and Rich stated I was not getting it back. Well I left with out the rv and had to hire an attorney and go back and fourth for a month and a half. I spent hours on the phone calling the storeg getting put on hold for hours and never being able to get a hold of anyone I finally talked to someone who cared in the customer relations department. She read my attourneys letter and she helped me get a refund. DO NOT do business with these people as all the reviews are 100% TRUE as I found out. What was supposed to be a dream purchase turned into a nightmare. DO NOT USE OPTIMUM RV as they will take advantage of you and FORCE you into subpar rvs. AND THEY WERE ASKING THE HIGHEST AMOUNT FOR THAT EXACT RV I COULD GET ELSEWHERE FOR OVER 10-15K LESS!! Thats what you get for not reading reviews!!! AND KEEP IN MIND THEY HAVE A SERVICE THAT GETS RID OF THE BAD REVIEWS AS THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE SUBMITTED THIS REVIEW BUT I WILL KEEP POSTING TO HELP OTHERS!!! read more

I continue to consider Mike Aldana an excellent customer service person but the dealer opt Optimum rv; not so much. Time after time at the time they have fallen short on their promises and their execution to get our RV in the condition that it should've been on day one. Still going on. read more

Awful customer service and sales department. We tried to sell our fifth wheel RV by consignment lowered the price several times. They called telling us they had an interested customer but they weren't able to make the full payment through getting a loan so they wanted us to accept 25g less than asking just to sell it. Then told us a couple weeks later we needed to pick up the RV they were going to charge a daily storage fee. We made contact several times to pick it up today. We arrived RV was not ready, they lost the license plate and the battery was dead we couldn't even bring the height up to connect it to get it moved. Mark was amazing and the only help he jumped the battery so we could get it moved. Unfortunately he is leaving the business too. I do not recommend this place. Many people walking around but no one doing anything. And there was a scratch on the side of the RV that was not there prior to drop off. Again extremely disappointed. read more

This dealer is very deceiving and will lie to you. I purchased a camper and they snuck a $7000 pdi fee. I should have walked then, but that was my mistake. Worst part is they didn't do the pdi. When I picked it up they had damaged it and the most impolite Manager ever, Scott, told me too bad you got a deal. Then they sent me out with a used power cord. It was raining so they put slides in and moved it so we could transfer stuff. The opposing bedroom slides wouldn't close all the way. Turns out there is a switch they didn't wire up that makes sure the bed is up so they don't touch. Dealer didn't even know about it. They also gave me the wrong outside hose, no ladder, broke the microwave tray and didn't tell me. Didn't test anything during the fake $7,000 PDI. Water pump didn't work right, stove had no power, generator didn't run. They said they'd stand behind it but it's been nothing but lies and now no communication. RUN from any Optimum RV dealership. read more

Had I researched Optimun RV on all review websites I never would have done any business with the bold face liars in Ocala. There salesmen promising to get missing items, and problems fixed should be a legal contract with these dealerships. My salesmen lied about the unit being serviced, some missing items he stated he would take care of them, not to worry everything would be taken care of. The service rep doing the inspection said items were in places they were not. I should have made them lay everything out. Service left the furnace running and gray water overflowing. I discovered these after driving home 2 hours. 1/8 tank of propane wasted. Water sloshed up through shower drain into the camper. Service didn't put service to plumbing after getting furnace working. They broke the latch that had worked a couple hours earlier. These people slam and bang everything. Not one professional acting or looking one in the bunch I dealt with. Oh, I will say a finance guy / one of the managers told me the unit didn't have any remaining coach warranty. He said Thor Warranty doesn't transfer and sold me a $8400 5 year 50,000 mile extended service plan. That was a bold face lie. Thor Class B does transfer the warranty to the second owner. There is 6 months remaining I have filed the forms cancelling that $8400 piece of sh*t plan that has mostly exclusions and stipulations where there isn't easily obtained coverage. And one would want to avoid any service at Optimum RV Ocala. They can't even reasonably preform a customer walk through without chaos. They have not ever provided the missing items, or corrected any deficiencies and they never will. They lie and if that doesn't work lie some more. I was told by an employee that probably the missing items were stolen by employees. Seems they just recently fired (Dec 2023 timeframe) an employee for stealing from not only the dealerships units but customer units in for repair. I think they missed a few because things are still coming up missing. Do not buy from Optimum Cancel your existing extended service plans. They are not worth the paper they are written on. (Notice Optimum RV does not provide you with a plan brochure! They just tell you it's 100% bumper to bumper) The dealers make as much as 50% profit on those plans. When you cancel the profits are reduced. Hit these scumbags in the wallet! Because these RV units are so expensive and there are outfits like Optimum RV screwing thousands of consumers out of millions there should be more regulations and oversight to monitor these crooks.

Stay away from these con artists. Drove 2.5 hours after agreeing on a price and putting a deposit down on the camper that the salesperson said "locked in my price" just for them to tell me they screwed up and had me down for a $10,000 down payment when there was no discussion of a down payment. After they admitted their wrongdoing they did nothing to try to make it right. Will never buy from them again and will spread the word to go elsewhere. read more

It's often said, "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". This is case in point (I suppose). I have (notice I said HAVE) my travel trailer there on consignment. I had to have them pick it up from another dealer because I got stuck out of town due to medical emergency. They picked it up timely etc and I paid the fee and the $299.00 consignment fee. THATS where it gets ridiculous. December 18, 2023 William Vernon, a so called "sales manager" calls and says they have an offer. He Sends me an e-mail to confirm I agreed. I replied right away that I agreed! I've never heard from him directly since. I even sent him an e-mail back a few days later asking for status, he never replied. After a week, I called and left a voice mail, crickets, never heard back. So I called the consignment specialist Gigi who put me in touch with Christy, another manager! She sounded great as if she was going to get it handled. She informed me they have 30-days to get me a check, at which I told her I'm wondering status of the unit! Did it? How much? When did it sell etc. ironically, as I sit here today, I only know that it sold! The only time I get a response, is if I send a nasty-gram or contact Gigi directly and she gets someone to call me back. It takes about a week to get a reply only after I initiate contact. Fast forward! Now I want my check. So, I e-mailed Christy, William and CC'd Denver Beck (owner) and Scott Caylor ( GM?). All because on January 19, Christy said she e-mailed corporate in regards to my check to see if they could mail it directly to me. A week goes by and nothing. So I e-mailed her again, including the above three others, and she came back with "I am in communication with them now requesting a tracking number". Umm, if it's been sent, a tracking number is readily available! So this tells me, no one has a clue where or when my check has been sent, if at all! It's been well past the 30 days Christy told me they have to get me a check, (I'm assuming since I don't know the day it sold etc) AND, I have never heard back from William, Denver or Scott Caylor. So if "upper management" doesn't have the courtesy to return an e-mail, how can they expect their staff to and seemingly with no accountability! Apple doesn't fall far from the tree!! I can only imagine the type of "after sale" service you'd get from them. Remember, everyone is a potential repeat customer, unless of course, your service is terrible as it has been here. There's more to it but this is long enough and you get the jest of it! Check please! read more

I refuse to allow this to be! My mother purchased an RV from Optimum Rv less than ^ months ago. They Did the old Bait and switch on her and boy was I angry. She explained to them what i needed, she told them i have an auto immune and that i would be living in this. Well what i got was a camping camper not a living camper. She had one picked out when they went to finance it they said wait we have this one yada yada we all know how that works don't we? Anyway long very long story they sold her a parasite infested camper. It's literally twisted, main support beam not even welded, one half of the Rv did not work ( outlets and gfi lights ect). It was filthy, both tanks were completely full ( fucking disgusting) and the wrong hot water heater ( no hot water for me). When i started cleaning i found so much animal hair in some places up to two inches thick. The vent to my stove fan was caked i mean caked with hair. Between the couch brackets, drawers ect. Every time I clean I get bit, so does my dog. This parasite ( I believe is some form of no see um) is eating all the cabinets more like building nests.It's in all t he fabric putting holes in the cynical. What is not that old now looks like its been lived i hard 20 years. I have holes in my arms, legs and face.. My dog also. Yes i said it holes. What ever this bug is burrows into your skin. It also leaves or has this sticky residue its always all over the floor counters. It's taken over full infestation.I can not even sleep or open my bedroom door.I sleep on the bench to the dinette! I have spent so much money on shit to get rid it cure me ect.. But nothing works i stay broke, and exhausted because i cant sleep and i spend every day cleaning over and over just so we can maybe get rest. My life is all about this and not actual life and i am being told to deal. Would you? When they finally agreed to do something we had to go up in price imagine that rite! So i picked one it was 27 thousand, no i didn't wanna pay that no i didn't feel i should have to but i agreed and so my mother went and did the stuff needed. Lo and behold when they put the financing in on her credit they put it in for 44 thousand. Meaning the price of that one and the price of this one. I never asked for a hand out i said i would pay but they wanted to be slick. Well now I'm done, I've read reviews there are others like me. But i cant live like this no more I'm so tired and I'm ate up i have sores everywhere, people stare they automatically go to drugs. Ive been refused by hospitals. So i will be posting videos and pictures, oh yeah i forgot to mention that it also smells like something dies in here. I will post Every chance i get through out every day until something is done. They have no morels or ethics its all about the money and that is just not right thing to do. And if nothing was done wrong then why did the salesman get fired? So this is the start of what will be a shit storm door them because i will make sure everyone knows and if i have to park this out in there parking lot i will trust me on that. read more

Had my RV on consignment for a few months. They were horrible to deal with via phone, email or text. When I picked up my unit they had lost all my manuals and spare keys. The unit was absolutely filthy and looks like it was never maintained. I had sand throughout the unit and someone spit a wad of tobacco in the sink. Do not consign anything at this place. Totally unorganized and very horrible on customer service !!!!!! They do not respect your equipment in my opinion. read more

What originally was a good sales experience has deteriorated to the worst experience we have had in our lives together. In short, LIARS, THIEVES, SHORT TEMPERED, BAD MANNERED, GROUP OF THUGS, BOTTOM OF THE BARREL DIRT BAGS. Continued problem with the generator, given excuse after excuse, lied to about the problem.

Optimum RV - Our new Vengeance Rogue Armored toy hauler. - RV Dealers Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Terrible team!!! Never work with them if you want the right deal for your units. Failed to follow up with customer for consignment units. Started communicating the customer when 90 days is up. I called and asked the team multiple times how the unit is and what services need to be taken. They gave me different answer and started telling me that one of my units needs detailing after 90 days and they did not sell it. No responsibility for their mistake. Tried to make money out of me after they didn't do their job after 90 days. Christi from the team is probably the worst. They initially said RV sells all year round and the price won't change. Another person from their team said that was the price 2-3 months ago. Lies, incompetence, and laziness. read more

What started as a not so good experience quickly turned great when Dominica Castoro took over as our service representative. This young lady is truly a rockstar! If it had not been for her we would have walked away from Optimum RV in Ocala because of all the issues we had. We can't thank Dominica enough for all her hard work and dedication to ensuring our 5th was 100% before we got there to finally pick it up! She deserves the commission for the sale of our camper plus a bonus for her quality of work. You need to find more like her! read more

Our family purchased our RV online from the Ocala Dealership on 05/13 for over $61,000 everything included. We put down $10,000 and financed the rest. Included in this figure were fees to have the RV inspected by their people to ensure there were no issues with anything, that the RV was ready to go, and that the unit would be professionally cleaned by their staff. The unit arrived 05/25 and immediately contacted Optimum with our concerns. We also contacted a local inspector specializing in RV's, for a professional inspection of the RV, and this is what he put in his report: "upon entering the coach you can clearly see to the left hand side of the entrance the floor is soft, upon closer inspection you can see the wall, and wood work in that area is also swollen, and showing major signs of water damage. I climbed a ladder to inspect the roof. The roof appears to have been leaking long enough to rot the decking near the antenna. All 4 corners are soft, as well as around vents, and the AC unit front termination bar was actively leaking and was caulked by myself to stop water penetration. The exterior wall is delaminated above the main entrance. 1. I contacted several RV Roofing companies, with my inspection results, the cheapest quote I was given was $10,000. Requiring all decking to be replaced, and possible truss replacement near the TV antenna. 2. all trim work, back splash, and cabinets near the cook stove, as well as separating countertops, all need to be removed and replaced. 3. floor in front of slide out, around entrance steps, needs to be removed, and replaced. 4. Roof Ac unit needs to be removed and cleaned to eliminate black mold. 5. refrigerator, cook stove, and Microwave all show signs of rust, wear and need to be replaced. Refrigerator was moldy, coils inside the fridge where so dirty, it had to be cleaned to get the thermistor to register temperature. 6. Living room sofa is peeling, and leaving plastic all over the floor. 7. As you enter the bedroom, the large sliding bedroom doors are missing, and a small curtain rood has been poorly installed, and screws are pulling out of the woodwork. 8. The nightstands next to the bed have the tops separating and need to be replaced. 9. The bedroom has clumps of dog hair in and around the bed platform. 10. The fresh water storage tank has visual black mold in the tank, and in the fill, and overflow hose as well. 11.The rear wall closest to the fresh water tank has water damage and appears to be separating at the rear corner of the unit. 12.Furnace combustion chamber when inspected with a camera, shows a high water mark inside the combustion chamber, and a lot of rust, when the customer used the furnace, they complained of light headedness, and headaches. I informed them to not use the unit, and that is must be replaced. 13.The water heater combustion chamber was full of rust, and needed to be serviced before use. Drivers compartment. 1.Carpet is loose and peeling around foot well area in drivers compartment, and passenger compartment. 2.Dash pad is torn. 3.Gasket around the windshield is failing and falls into drivers vision area 4.dash ac does not cool. 5.wall is soft under driver's window, and has failed causing a hole. 6.broken windshield wiper arms, 7.front seats are both crumbling and peeling leaving piles of loose plastic dust on the floor. 8.bunk above the drivers area is slow and needed assistance to retract fully. The unit is heavily worn, very dirty, and shows signs of a neglected unit, or a unit that was lived in for an extended period of time, and not maintained. The amount of attention this unit needs, with floor replacement, roof replacement, delamination in the exterior walls, and panel replacement on the interior walls, not to mention the unseen damage that will be found once the unit is opened, I would not attempt to repair, in my opinion it exceeds the value of the unit." This report was given to Optimum RV, who has doubled down on their claim the unit was sold "AS IS". However, none of the issues were disclosed to us the buyer. read more

Charged my dad for a parts that he never received and refused to give him his money back.

The salesperson did a great job helping Sissy narrow down what she really wants in a RV! I think she was a little disappointed when she found out we were only doing market research. Next time we will test drive. Having fun shopping! read more

Another update and an extra star. Read the previous reviews...after having the new RV for 2 weeks it just was not working out for our family. We called Optimum back and explained our situation and concerns. After a few days they called us and said they had some trade back options if we were interested. Without getting into the technicals of the process...the team (Joel and Donnie) was great to work with and really guided us in finding what we exactly wanted. We joke and said we basically live there now. We have visited almost every weekend for the last month. Hope when we pick up our new motor coach it will be our last visit for awhile. The process with optimum started off a little shaky but has definitely improved...still not a fan of their service department but that seems to be the case at most dealerships. Let's see how the 2nd time around pick up of the new unit goes! read more

Went to look at an RV. Saw one we liked and sat down to negotiate. Their asking price was very high ( no problem, this is a used rv ), we offered a reasonable price. They wanted over $ 6,000 as a prep fee. Other dealers want $995 . Their asking price was at least 15% over the JD Power value, but they did not want to come down at all. They only offered a prep fee of over $ 3,000, no negotiations on price. They pull the usual sales game. Salesman leaves, then business manager sits to pressure for sale, then sales manager sits. We pulled our offer and that was before we had to deal with the high pressure add ons. Do NOT deal with these people. Other deals use the same techniques but are at least willing to negotiate. We now see why they have such a low rating. read more
