We're dedicated to protecting your interests and ensuring fair treatment from manufacturers. Join our community of RV owners fighting for better warranty coverage and consumer protection.

Welcome to Our RV Advocacy Website

We’re excited to welcome you to our new RV Advocacy website—created for the RV community, not the RV industry. We’re Pete and Lisa, also known as @WestsOnTheMove. We began our full-time RV journey in 2022, knowing almost nothing, and we’ve learned a lot since then.

While we’ve found the RV community to be incredibly warm and supportive, our experiences with dealerships and manufacturers have often left us frustrated, discouraged, and even angry. And we know we’re not alone.

Sound familiar?

Have you ever known more about the RV you were shopping for than the salesperson?
Have you had to fight tooth and nail just to get your RV repaired through a dealership or directly from the RV assembly / manufacturing company?
Have you felt like your RV manufacturer was gaslighting you?
Have you ever had your RV manufacturer not honor your repair warranty?

The list goes on! If so, you’re in the right place.

This website is here to offer:

Encouragement for those feeling overwhelmed or disheartened
Education about the realities of the RV industry
Resources to help you thrive in your RV lifestyle
Advocacy to push for better standards and accountability
Strength to stand up for yourselves against the RV industry

We believe that only by coming together can we create meaningful, lasting change.

To the RV Community: It’s Time to Face the Truth

Too many RVers are still falling for the same tired tactics used by manufacturers across the industry. It doesn’t matter what the brand is—whether it’s a legacy name or a flashy newcomer—they’re all using the same playbook: manipulate, sell, and move on. They rely on emotional marketing, influencer partnerships, and a manufactured sense of community to keep you loyal, even when they fail to deliver.

We operate two RV consumer advocacy platforms under a different name, and we’ve seen the patterns repeat over and over again. Brinkley is just the latest example. Despite the polished image and premium pricing, we personally know of at least two recent buybacks. That’s not innovation—it’s damage control. It’s the same old story: new name, slicker branding, and a much bigger price tag.

This is not about a few bad apples or isolated incidents. This is a systemic problem in the RV industry. Manufacturers are not prioritizing your safety, your investment, or your experience—they’re prioritizing their bottom line. And the more we excuse it, the more it continues. Every time someone defends these companies without holding them accountable, more people are misled, more families are left with broken rigs, and more money is wasted.

But here’s the good news: people are starting to speak up. More RVers are sharing their stories, exposing the truth, and demanding better. The tide is turning—but we need more voices.

It’s time to stop believing the lies. Stop defending the gaslighting. Start demanding real change. That means pushing for federal safety regulations and construction standards—just like the housing and automotive industries have had for decades. The RV lifestyle shouldn’t come with this level of risk, uncertainty, and exploitation.

You deserve better! We all do!
