Total Value RV is great for parts.
They are in Elkhart, IN (866-282-4460)
Since they are very close to all RV manufacturing, they can source quickly and ship out.
Just call the parts dept, give them your credit card over the phone and you are golden.
My experience with them is very positive

I hope they keep the RV Whisperer videos going. That guy cracks me up.

Will be interesting how this impact them. We purchased our 18 there, we were camping in the area & spent 2 or 3 days working on the deal @ the dealership. Was waiting for some issue which would cause us to drop the deal, but never happen / everything went smooth.

They do have a good relationship with Entegra "they are only about 20 away" - I think my last service tech at Entegra actually had worked at Total Value RV at some point.

You don't want to give Lazydays a credit card number....you might have new Thor charged to it.

They stock many OEM parts

Many that no one else carries

Great place

I like competition, try not to let my preconceived thoughts interfere. I'll wait and see. If I have a chance I'll see what they can do.

Well, since no one has answered my questions ("I have spent many weeks in Middlebury and have never seen Total Value RV location, where is it located?"), I decided to look it up. The main issue is that Total Value RV is NOT located in Middlebury, but is located in Elkhart instead. That appears to be the main reason that I have never seen it. Only spent nights in a motel in Elkhart while coach was being repaired in Middlebury.

I will look them over more fully as they might be able to supply some parts that I have been looking for. I have never liked the LED wall light fixture in my 19 Cornerstone (thin paper shades) but Entegra's lack of stock for older models and just ordering what is needed for the current run policy in Middlebury) has meant that making a simply change to something nicer looking has been a real chore.

What Dee and I have been looking for are the clouded or frosted glass shade wall light fixtures like was common on 15-~17 Cornerstones and actually Anthems and Aspires but now not used on new coaches. The LEDS need to be dimmable. Anyone have a suggestion where I might find those if Total Value RV doesnt have them?

Gary,

Total Value is next to the Elkhart Campground in Elkhart. We stayed at that campground a couple of weeks ago. Total Value actually has a pretty good reputation from what I have heard. They are big on Entegra and also Forest River.
