Referral Auto Group

I was looking all over the Bay Area at RV dealers and their inventory, when I found an interesting 5^th wheel trailer at Referral Auto Group. When I visited, I was positively surprised at how clean this little dealership and their units looked. I decided to visit again along with my wife to take another closer look. Tony, the owner was very knowledgeable and patiently answered all the questions we had, which impressed my wife and me. The used 5^th wheel that we had our eye on did meet almost all of our wishlist items and an inspection checked out fine. Ultimately we were not able to make the deal because the sale of our house was delayed, but Tony was more than patient and I would not hesitate to go back there in the future.

My husband just wrote a review, and I’m compelled to write one too – only because I was leaning over his shoulder trying to write it (like a ‘back-​seat’ writer). I figured instead of taking over his review, I should write my own.
Tony at Referral Auto Group was no-​doubt-​about-​it fantastic. He was patient, knowledgeable, and very helpful – all in all, a straight-​shooting professional.
I don’t really write many reviews, unless I get particularly good service. Tony and his crew were great!

Just purchased a 5^th wheel from Tony @ Referral Auto Group after almost a year of shopping. We debated about a used RV, but are so happy with our purchase. Most used RV dealer don’t detail or clean the RV before having a buyer. Referral Auto Group cleaned every before advertising online or putting it on their lot. On each trip to see their new arrivals not once did I walk into an RV that smelled badly or was dirty. In most other used RV dealers there were many I walked into and smelled so bad or were so worn I didn’t get past the door. The customer service and attention to detail were awesome.
We most definitely recommend Referral Auto Group if you are shopping for s used RV

I was blown away by the excellent service provided to me. If I ever purchase another RV it will be from Referral. Prices are excellent. Every rig they sell is pristine. You don’t have to be treated like a sucker by those giant RV dealers and you don’t have to worry about getting scammed by a craigslister.

Hard for me to believe the EMG review here.
I was selling my trailer on Craigslist and received an email from Tony offering lower than what I wanted at the time, but I told him I would keep it in mind. After a couple days of showing it to flakes, driving back and forth to take measurements, and getting good offers that fizzled out, I realized my time was worth more and gave him a call to pick it up.
Tony and his partner met me at my storage, looked over the trailer for about 10 – 15 minutes, handed me cash on site, did all of the DMV paperwork on his tailgate, and the whole deal was done within ½ hr. While this was my first personal trailer, I’ve been around the industry a long time and guys with integrity like him are hard to come by. There was no nit-​picking of little things and trying to lower the price again. The trailer was in the condition I said it was in so he paid the price he promised to me. Couldn’t be happier and would definitely send people his way who are looking for an RV.

very honorable dealer !!! made a purchase found a missing part said he would order it and have manufacteur send straight to me. very straight forward. felt very comfortable making an 1.5 hour drive to make purchase and look forward to doing business in the future when it’s time to upgrade my RV. Thanks Tony — Your the Best !!!

I was selling my fifth wheel on Craig’s list, Tony called and made us a fair offer on it. He even drove down to San Diego to pick it up and paid cash. How easy was that. When he returned to Escalon, he discovered that we had left several valuables in the safe and mailed them to us the next day. Thank you for the clean transaction and your honesty.

Tony wrote an email offering $ 8,500 (sight unseen) on Craig’s list to buy a 14 year old 5^th wheel from me. I had it listed for $ 12,000. The 5^th wheel Alfa Ideal is in great condition, 1 owner other than me, no water leaks etc… just spent $ 1,000 having it looked over by Alfateers near L.A. just to make sure there were no problems before sale. Alfateers fixed some minor problems, replaced house batteries and taped a bad scratch on the side top where my husband scraped a tree large bush. The fix is appr. 16 to 18 inches long on an original well taken care of roof where it is rounded coming down to the side. It only broke the surface skin, not the roof. I explained that in full detail and it shows in the photos sent to him. We had the carpet shampooed. It is very clean. Relatively new tires. This 5^th wheel has 14 years of immaculate records, plastic still on the lampshades, oven never used, 3 slide outs, upgraded queen bed mattress, all original upholstery in excellent condition.
This «buyer» talked and talked and wants and wants… called every 10 minutes just to let me know «HE WILL TAKE IT and not to sell it to anyone else!» I believed him.
I made the mistake of telling other buyers that it was sold since he said he was on the road for 6 hours to pick it up. I drove a 50 mile round trip to meet him. In the meantime he got a better deal somewhere else. He admitted he was going to pick up another RV. I guess he did not have enough money to buy both. He looked mine over, picked it to death and said he dose not want it. So much for the «as is offer».
Tony has a website but only allows «raving testimonials». That should give you a clue. (Funny that I am the 1^st Unilocal review with his claim of having so many happy customers)
He does not know what he is doing. One of the complaints he had was that my Alfa was not a 2001 but a 2000 because it was manufactured in 2000. (There is a production /​manufacturing plaque on all RV’s somewhere on it) Most RV manufacturers can not get an RV made and titled and sold the same month they built it. I took it to an RV dealership just to make sure. They confirmed that this man does not know what he is talking about. My title says 2001 and that is how I wanted to sell it, of course. He obviously is not experienced enough to know the difference between manuf. and title dates. Get cash before you hear the blah blah blah and lose a sale with someone serious. I should take him to court.
