I bought a spare tire for my previous open car trailer from Restless Wheels. My car club has a show at Manassas Chrysler right next door every year, yet I forgot about them. Thanks for the reminder!

When my Annapolis RV dealership folded, they recommended Restless Wheels for any service, parts, camping gear....but I've yet to go there. Never did make it to CW in Manassas - afraid I'd go bankrupt if I entered their store!

I live about 5 miles from Restless Wheels and they do carry a lot of specific repair parts and I highly recommend them. I've never used the service side of their business, but the folks there are fairly knowledgble and helpful.

It seems CW are closing their stores at RV Dealers if they cannot buy the Dealership. I have heard there are a few law suits in the works against CW over this.

This also happened at the CW store in Clarksville, IN (across from Louisville, KY). CW had been leasing space from the Stinnet dealership.
Really not surprised. Seems to me that CW was more interested in selling lawn chairs along with a few RV parts

I was told by a salesman at Reines a couple of years ago that CW paid them $33,000 a month rent for the store and four bays. They'll have to sell lots of supplies/parts/tp/stuff to make that kind of profit if the $33K figure was correct.

Maybe shipping costs from China are less for CW at their new location

I just picked up my coach from Restless Wheels who replaced a LevelLegs jack for me, great service department, quick and easy...all warranty paperwork was done and no issues. Mark did a great job. Would for sure go back.

Like Kanyonkitty said CW started selling Rv's and now the dealerships hooked to the CW's want them gone and I don't blame them.I'm sure CW expected this to happen that's probably why their super centers are popping up in diff. places.I don't think CW is hurting for $$

Camping World opened a new store a few months ago in WInchester VA so you do not have to travel too far to get to one if you want one. It is smaller than the one in Manassas but it is closer than roanoke.
