What Other Customers Are Saying
GREAT SERVICE, GREAT PEOPLE!
I've been taking our coach to RV Connection in Lawton, Oklahoma, for some time. I've always had prompt, courteous and professional service.
Took the coach in with a house battery charging problem. They found that one my four Interstate batteries was bad, and they would have to replace all four -

Received a fair trade from Paul on the used 5th wheel we purchased there two years ago. Paul and Larry delivered
