RV Watchdog is dedicated to protecting RV buyers from costly mistakes. This channel focuses on RV pricing, financing, dealer tactics, recalls, and market trends — without sales hype or brand loyalty.
If you’re buying an RV or thinking about it, this channel helps you understand:
👉 What RVs really cost
👉 How financing impacts long-term ownership
👉 What dealers don’t explain upfront
👉 When buying makes sense — and when it doesn’t
The goal is simple: help buyers make informed decisions before they sign. This channel reports on patterns of owner-documented issues. No determination of defect, liability, or manufacturer's fault is made.
If you’ve experienced structural or major component failure, submit a report to help track patterns. RV Structural Failure Report Submission: forms.gle/ogAibW5Rddrg9MY29

I’m currently editing an upcoming video set to release on February 18, 2026, at 3:00 PM.
In this episode, we expose the “Trade-In” for what it really is—a math trick. When you have negative equity, dealers simply roll that remaining debt into your next loan, stacking interest on top of interest and deepening the hole.
In this Forensic Audit, we break down the “Synthetic Exit”—the only legitimate way to sell an upside-down RV privately without wrecking your credit.
We also explain why banks typically refuse short sales, how to strategically use gap capital, and why escrow is essential to properly clear the title and protect all parties involved.
