Meet Sonny: Your Trusted Local RV Expert

 

Sonny, the founder of A1 RV Buyer, is a Southern California native, lifelong RV enthusiast, and decade-long RV buying expert. He understands the headaches of owning an underused RV and focuses on a simple, no-frills approach to deliver fast cash. Skip the corporate hassle—Sonny’s team prioritizes fairness and efficiency. Watch this real customer video where Sonny turns Chelsea’s rundown RV into cash in just hours.

Chelsea’s Real Story: From Burden to Cash in Hours

Chelsea from Wildomar (near Temecula, Riverside County) was fed up with her unused 2001 Coachmen. “I expected a long, drawn-out sale,” she shares. “But Sonny arrived, got it running in under 6 hours, offered more than I hoped, navigated my narrow gate effortlessly, and even cleaned up my yard. A1 RV Buyer made it effortless.” See her full story in the video above. If your RV is also a cost, let’s break down the hidden expenses—and why it’s time to cash out.

The Hidden Costs of Holding Onto Your Old RV

An idle RV isn’t just sitting there—it’s costing you. Storage fees in Southern California can average $75–$250/month for outdoor spots or $125–$400/month for covered/indoor options, adding up to $900–$4,800 annually. Repairs add even more: Roof leaks often cost $150–$400 for sealant fixes or $3,000–$8,000 for full replacement, while engine issues can exceed $1,000–$10,000 (and up to $30,000+ for diesel Class A models). Values drop over time, and dealing with flaky private buyers or lowballing dealers only adds frustration. Selling for cash now instantly stops the drain—here’s how Sonny ensures a fair deal.

How We Calculate a Fair Cash Offer for Your RV

 

Sonny evaluates your RV’s make, model, year, mileage, and condition using up-to-date market data from sources like NADA Guides. From a high-mileage 1995 Fleetwood to a 2008 trailer with roof damage, you get a transparent, no-pressure offer reflecting true value—just like for Chelsea and countless others. Curious about your RV’s worth? Visit NADA Guides or our valuation tool for a quick estimate.
