RV Showcase at Flying Flags

This summer you can shop for a new RV while you camp at Flying Flags.  Pacific Coast RV Sales has a huge selection of new direct from factory RV's.  In addition they have many super clean bank reposessions.  All of the units are displayed right at the campground and open for touring. 

Flying Flags manager, Dan Baumann explains "This relationship is a win, win scenario.  Our guests love to make an activity out of touring through the RV's to see the latest innovations and floor plans.  I see many people with wine glasses, kids and even their pets."  Shaun Brewer, president of Pacific Coast RV Sales goes on to explain "what better place is there to display RV's then right there at a campground?  Guests can stroll through the RV's without having to go to a high pressure sales lot."

The RV Showcase is open every day from 10am - 5pm with a sales staff ready to answer questions, or arrange a trade and finance your new purchase.  Mr. Brewer remarks "We have been told our prices and trade in values are the best.  We've upgraded many guests at Flying Flags to the RV they have always wanted"  Some have arrived to Flying Flags in one RV and left in a brand new one.
