Three RVs. One with 135+ defects in the first year. We started CrappyRV to give the RV community what the dealerships and manufacturers won't: an honest look at what you're really buying.
We bought our first RV in 2017 â a Winnebago Navion â and spent two years on the road. We loved it. Then we had our first kid and needed something bigger.
That's when the trouble started. A Coachmen Pursuit that lived in the shop. An Alliance Paradigm that racked up over 135 documented issues in its first year. The same story we kept hearing from other RV families: corporations buying out independent manufacturers, slashing QC, pushing units out the door.
So in 2021 we started CrappyRV. Not because we hate RVing â we love it. Because the industry was getting away with selling people six-figure problems, and somebody had to say it.
