"The standard for dealership performance — automotive and RV."
The first curated group of independent RV consulting and technology experts organized under one institutional roof — built for dealer groups, OEM programs, and private equity operators who need whole-dealership performance, not five separate vendors.
"I don't work for the Council. I sit on the Council."
RV dealer groups are growing. OEM programs want whole-dealership coverage. Private equity is moving into the space. No single independent operator can serve that demand alone — and until now, nothing has organized the best of them together.
Every Council member keeps their own brand, their own clients, their own methodology. What changes is how they show up: coordinated around a shared standard, working the same engagements side by side, presenting as one bench instead of five separate calls. That's what the Council adds — a bigger stage, better mandates, and a unified market identity no solo operator could build alone.
The RV Division is launching with a focused, deliberate footprint — Fixed Ops and Technology — rather than a roster stretched thin across every discipline on day one.
Scattered individual operators serve this market today — no organized peer standard. The Council brings a documented process: eliminate scheduling surprises, close process and compliance gaps, and build a fully customized service sales approach around each dealership's own staff and goals.
No credible organized technology advisory exists in RV today. The Council covers the full stack — private-label menu and performance technology, retention platforms, and the industry's first Mobile RV Tech Dispatch network, matching certified mobile techs with dealerships, consumers, and manufacturers on demand.
A growing bench of independent experts sits on the Council — the founding names below are the start, not the whole roster. Every seat reflects a documented track record of results and a shared standard of professional integrity. Named, invitation only.
