First Time Jayco RV Dealer Pleased with Year-Opening Sales

SOUTH BURLINGTON, Vt. - Feb. 23, 2016 - PRLog -- With the acquisition of Van's RV Center in Connecticut last September, and getting Jayco for the first time at their Vermont location in January, Pete's RV Center was eager to find out just how well the line would sell for them in 2016.

"Being in the business for a long time, we were well aware of Jayco's excellent reputation and consistent presence at the top of their statistical categories," said VP of sales Chad Shepard.  "We knew that Jay Flight, Jay Feather, Eagle, and some of the other popular brands would be well received, but overall, everything from Jayco we are putting on the display floor is selling...and that's just fantastic."

Both of Pete's RV Center's New England locations now carry a deep inventory of Jayco-branded travel trailers, fifth wheels, and motorhomes.  Including the aforementioned, they stock Pinnacle, North Point, Greyhawk, Redhawk, White Hawk, Alante, Melbourne, Bungalow, and Precept.

Van's RV sales manager Nick Campbell shared Shepard's sentiment on their first go with Jayco, "There's been a steady increase in sales inquiries since right after New Year's Day.  These inquiries plus exhibiting at the RV shows in Hartford and Springfield have resulted in a record number of winter sales at the Connecticut dealership.  We're exceeding expectations right now.  I'm optimistic this momentum is going to carry us through spring and deep into 2016."

Continuing their promotional efforts for Jayco, Pete's RV plans to schedule additional open houses and exhibiting at upcoming New England RV shows.

Pete's RV has been operating out of their original location in South Burlington, Vermont since 1952. Van's RV in South Windsor, Connecticut is Pete's third dealership.  The second Pete's RV location in Schererville, Indiana was acquired from Rollin-On RV in May 2011.
