Cruise America

2011-11-27 23:20:02.248293+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

While meuon is fuming over revenue creation opportunities in the design of his generator, I thought I'd express a little pleasant surprise the other way: Alan, Charlene's developmentally disabled brother, loves RVs. His second favorite thing in the world (after visiting firehouses) is visiting RV shops. So we rented an RV from Cruise America and took him "camping" (yeah, I'm hardcore, camping to me normally involves tents at the very least).

The pleasant surprise is that unlike experiences renting cars, and even tools, Cruise America didn't try to upsell, hit us with add-ons, or anything else. They gave us a basic vehicle which worked (aside from one glitch), for the agreed upon price, and we generally got the feeling of a company, or at least a franchise, that cared.

And Sierra Meadows RV gave us a place to park, hook ups, with no hassles and everything just worked.
