| - Decent looking place, and they have some very unusual amenities, such as allowing buyers to spend a coupla nights on the lot in their new RV so that they understand how everything works. Very impressed.
The "impressed" ended there.
The salesperson (Angela) was very bubbly and friendly as we walked to the lot. She began showing us a 5th wheel that she felt we'd like. She hadn't asked a single qualifying question, so she didn't know squat about what we wanted, beyond us wanting a 5th wheel.
So, she showed us a coach. It was a very nice coach, but nothing like what we were looking for. I told her we'd looked a couple of particular Montana models, and why we liked them. EVERYTHING that spilled out of her mouth moving forward was about how badly Montana sucks. This woman didn't know what a level memory was (for when you want to re-connect to your truck after a stay, and even after I explained it to her, she was baffled as to why it's a benefit), but she allegedly knew everything about every other brand, as she explained why Pinnacle, Jayco, Montana models all suck compared to the Elkridge that she was showing us. She'd just returned from a three day training and couldn't remember much about what she'd been told.
When I pointed out that she was selling against the Montana we knew a little about, she told me she was already sure that we'd made up our minds on the Montana (We hadn't), and that we were essentially wasting her time.
Then she told us we could look at another Elk Ridge at the Oasis resort, it had XXXX state plates, and we could talk to XXXX and XXXX, who are staying at the Oasis. Apparently they'd just purchased the Elk Ridge and done some modifications to it. Whether she had their permission to pass on the names or not, my wife and I were shocked at how freely she shared very private and specific information.
As we were leaving, a man came up to Angela and playfully slapped her lips, saying "Angela is a talkative woman. We only allow women 1400 words a day here, and she used em' up this morning." Again, shocked. The misogyny seen here, along with the very proud NRA stickers, Trump campaign materials, and Angela's snobby, negative sales pitches against every brand of RV that she didn't sell was off putting.
THEN, she pulled out a list, a printed, laminated list, of why Camping World, Blue Dog, and another RV place were so terrible, and why they're all "dishonest." We were grateful for that, as we hadn't heard of Blue Dog.
The final icing on the cake was when I commented that years ago I was a sales trainer for two of the biggest training companies in the world, and with her negative pitch, that she would benefit from training. She practically threw us off the lot.
Angela, if you're reading this, you should know that we immediately left your lot, went to Blue Dog, and are in the process of buying a 2015 Elk Ridge from Nelson, who quit Johnnie Walker's two months ago. Your over the top negativity led us to a very positive, happy place that didn't have a single negative word about your lot.
[after a nasty note from one of the folks at Johnny Walker, I've downgraded my review.
My review echoes the sentiments of *many* people on Yelp.
We went to Johnny Walkers again just a few weeks ago; they told us over the phone they had a part that in fact, they didn't. It's a long drive up there only to find our time was wasted.
But we sure do love our RV we bought from another dealer, a dealer we'd never heard of until the people at Johnny Walker denigrated and talked down every other dealer in Las Vegas.
