Give us your opinion of RV trade shows
/ rallies - in your own words |
Generally the viewpoint was very
favorable. Many people said they enjoyed looking at new RVs,
although some mentioned that there was a lot of 'glitz and glitter'
that not many people could afford. Several people commented that
it was nice to meet other RVers and join in the atmosphere, and
several considered it educating. Very few people said they were
disappointed (less that 2%) - perhaps the most negative comment was
"Don't go any more. I figure why should I pay an entrance fee to give someone the chance to sell me something."
Otherwise, it's a fair summary to say that people really like RV trade
shows and rallies. |
