The owner of this place has a very big head and this Tactic is no surprise ... Cadillacs and flash is all over his place!!

They were too cheap to swap it with an Entegra sweep?

weirba · 04-09-2016, 02:07 AM

We did not like the look of them either, but am more surprised that Entegra installs them and when we looked at a build sheet I noticed they are listed as a no cost option.

Can't imagine any car manufacturer installing dealer branding at the plant, why would Entegra?

Maybe its because MHSRV sells a lot of Entegra coaches, but that is not a good reason for such a bad practice.

Diluting the brand is dumb. No sale unless replaced with original equipment at their expense.

Not sure why anyone spending this much money would allow such a large "billboard" on their coach. I personally removed every decal, sticker or plate frame from my coach on day 1. Silly move on Entegra to let this take place at their factory.

i took all off my coach because not satisfied with dealer

Rmallardjr · 04-20-2016, 07:19 AM

I'm not an Integra owner(yet), and I do agree with the sentiment from owners about the preferred name on their sweep - but, I'm not sure I understand the negatives of a dealership offering this optional item at no charge(if that's truly the case).

We all have pride in what we own and drive, it is a symbol of our loyalty and maybe the belief that we drive 'the best'. Of course, other manufacturer owners might disagree with that, but it's somewhat 'fun' to have these manufacturer wars.

Having said that, every dealer that sells units for any manufacturer has pride in what they sell, as well. They want their name advertised as much as possible, too. And if you purchase from them, wouldn't you have just as much pride in your dealer as you do in your manufacturer, and don't you tell everyone you know just where you purchased your great unit(?)

I'm just adding some thoughts about why we question the motives and business decision of dealers, but don't necessarily project that same motive on the manufacturer.

Why don't we have our OWN name on the sweep, rather than the Dealer OR the Manufacturer(?)... it sounds like that's the case we might be making(?) : )

maybe I'll forgo the 'Thor' or 'Palazzo' sweep and make mine to read: " Paid Cash "
(if I even get one!)

MisterT, go out and look at the badging on your car. Does it have your name, or the manufacturer's?

brobox · 04-20-2016, 09:55 AM

If I "accidentally" make a lane change too soon.....I sure don't want my name across the back of the MH

Good one Chuck!!!

If they include both sweeps in the deal, fine. If I don't have a choice I would not be happy.
Giving me the option of a custom sweep would also be a nice bonus.
