Welcome to RV Advocacy Network

Advocating for RV Owners. Demanding Accountability. Driving Change.

Welcome to RV Advocacy Network, a consumer-focused platform created by RV owners, for RV owners.

We're Pete and Lisa West, formerly known as @WestsOnTheMove. Like many people entering the RV lifestyle, we began our full-time journey in 2022 with excitement, optimism, and very little knowledge of the RV industry. What we discovered along the way was eye-opening.

While the RV community proved to be welcoming, supportive, and generous with its knowledge, our experiences with dealerships, manufacturers, warranty departments, and service networks often revealed a different reality. Delayed repairs, unresolved defects, inconsistent customer service, and a lack of accountability are challenges faced by far too many RV owners.

The more RV owners we met, the clearer it became:

These aren't isolated incidents. They're industry-wide issues affecting thousands of consumers.

That's why RV Advocacy Network exists.

Does Any of This Sound Familiar?

  • Have you ever known more about an RV than the salesperson trying to sell it to you?

  • Have you spent months waiting for warranty repairs that should have taken weeks?

  • Have you been told that obvious defects are "normal" or "within specification"?

  • Have you struggled to get a manufacturer or dealer to stand behind their product?

  • Have you felt ignored, dismissed, or blamed when reporting legitimate concerns?

  • Have you wondered why so many RV owners seem to experience the same recurring problems?

If any of these sound familiar, you're not alone.

And you're in the right place.

Our Mission

RV Advocacy Network is dedicated to empowering consumers through education, awareness, support, and advocacy.

We believe RV owners deserve:

  • Accurate and transparent information

  • Quality products that meet reasonable expectations

  • Fair and timely warranty support

  • Accountability from manufacturers and dealerships

  • A stronger collective voice within the RV industry

We also believe lasting change happens when consumers share information, document their experiences, and stand together.
