    Speaking to the sales manager and salesperson about getting license back

    La Mesa RV in Sanford is the worst dealership I've dealt with in 20 years of buying vehicles. We came in for a Solitude 390 RK, asked them to match a fair price from another dealer, and spent three hours being strung along. They demanded $16,000 just to add a 5th wheel hitch, generator, and washer/dryer, refused to match the competitor's price, and held onto our driver's license during "negotiations" a shady pressure tactic. We sat at a table for over an hour while our salesman, Kevin, claimed he was "fighting for us," but in reality, the sales manager was just on the phone the entire time. Then they tried to trap us in a false choice: either a better price or a better interest rate, never both. Kevin even played the sympathy card with a personal story about his pregnant wife instead of giving us straight answers. Whether it was true or not, it was completely unprofessional in a negotiation. This place is manipulative, dishonest, and wastes your time. If you value your money, your time, and basic respect, shop anywhere else.

    When I started the process of trading in and updating our RV I had the usual apprehension that comes along with this task. Don't overpay and don't get taken is what I kept telling myself. Because a motorhome is such a high-ticket item, you have to broaden your search area to make sure you get what you want and pay what you think is a fair price. I was in the market for a new or barely used Diesel Class A or Super C, and I was trading in a 2022 Jayco Seneca Super C. I started locally and then expanded to get numbers from known nationwide dealers like NIRVC, MHS, Blue Sky, General, and La Mesa. The best numbers I got were from La Mesa, and they had no hidden or inflated fees like some of the others. I felt extremely comfortable with my saleswoman, Diana, and felt as if she was always brutally honest with me. I wanted and respected that. We did the deal via text, email, and phone, and I was still very apprehensive that the "deal" would change once I arrived at their Sanford location with my trade-in coach. It didn't!! The buying and delivery processes went as smoothly as possible, and the staff were over-the-top warm and friendly. I need to spotlight a few people. Thank you, Diana and Mike, for a no-nonsense sale. You guys were a pleasure to deal with. Thank you, Devyn and Gus, for a smooth, informative and friendly delivery. Devyn, you went above and beyond with that FedEx, and I really appreciated your follow-up after delivery on some parts needed. Thank you, finance team (Di and Rebecca), for making our delivery day simple, pleasurable, and without pressure. Highly recommend!!

    Just went looking at new shinny RV's But, after all the time and knowledge salesman Ed spent with us we couldn't leave without buying a new Tiffin coach.. Ed was great, and had all the answers to my sometimes nitty questions. My wife kept saying how nice he was for driving us all over the lot... because of nice people like Ed and the rest of the folks at La Masa in Sanford we will be back and highly recommend them to our friends and family. Thank you Ed, Jim & Wendy G

    We are both traveling nurses and this purchase was literally going to be our home and our first RV; we were nervous and Jason made the process a joy!

    Do not buy from or service your RV here. This business is an absolute disaster from top to bottom…read more My RV was severely damaged under their care, and after four months they still could not complete the repairs correctly. To make matters worse, they even painted my unit the wrong color. The problems start with ownership and management. Andre (owner) and Dennis (VP) have shown a shocking lack of professionalism and accountability. Instead of correcting serious mistakes, I was told by service manager Chris in DeBary that I was "too picky" for expecting repairs to be done properly. Poor workmanship, terrible customer service, no accountability, and complete disregard for customers' property. This has been one of the worst business experiences I have ever had. In my opinion, this place should not be operating until they can provide competent and honest service.

During the slide adjustment, three gashes were put in our floor, and it had to be replaced. After three months, when we finally got it back, the floors, walls, and cabinets were damaged, and the camper was unbelievably dirty. The workmanship appeared careless, with mismatched screws, chipped molding, glue on the floors, and uneven and missing caulking. The slide was still crooked, and the fireplace no longer works. We tried many times to speak with the owner, but communication was poor. When we finally did talk, the conversation became heated on both sides. We were frustrated, and the situation had already gone on for months. The owner showed little interest in resolving the issues. After more than 90 days, we received our camper back in worse condition than when it went in. I have pictures and a diary of calls and messages to support this account. Overall, the experience was frustrating and disappointing. In my opinion, I would not recommend this company.

    THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING A USED RV FROM HERE. I bought a 2024 Thor that had very low mileage on…read moreit. The day we left with it we had water coming in under the slide, broken water heater that was spraying water outside of the water heater (the main valves to the water heater were off so I am assuming the issue was known), after the first rain we noticed more water than just under the slide and realized water was coming from the ceiling, the macerator was not working from the bathroom, and the fridge was not cooling completely. These are not things you can notice during the walk through except maybe the water heater but we did not know the valves were off to the water heater until we went to use the shower. I took this camper to my local Blue Compass due to the fact that i drive over 2 hours to buy this one. My local dealer confirmed these issues including needing a brand new fridge, damaged water heater, leaking roof since it was not sealed prior, new slide seals (found a birds nest inside) and a clogged macerator. Luckily I purchased an extended warranty which covered the refrigerator and the water heater, but the rest of the items were now my expense. Although this camper was used, I still paid a SIGNIFICANT amount of money for it to have all of these issues. I did reach out to the Sales manager in Orlando named Ashlynn but she never would get back to me on the issues. I then reached out to the General manager, named Cindy whom also never bothered to reach out to me. My local Blue Compass advised me that these are issues that their location would not have let go. I am very upset that no one felt the need to contact me at all even if it was to apologize or even a simple "we can't help". All I got was crickets. When I traded my previous camper, I was aware that a part needed replacement and I did my due diligence and ordered the part and had it delivered to them so that my camper was in full working order for them to re sell. I spent $600 just to ship that part because it was the right thing to do even though I got a very low offer on my trade as it was. If you still feel the need to shop here, the only great quality they have is their Sales associate Melissa Salmons. She was wonderful and even tried to help with these issues, but they were out of her hands.
