Why it’s a good time to buy an RV
RV life has been having a moment over the past few years, and its popularity is likely to grow even more going forward. Many people are now working remotely and have the freedom to hit the road. If you’re considering joining the RV lifestyle, or you are in the market for your next RV, right now, especially during America’s Largest RV Show, may be the best time to purchase. As the summer season comes to a close, demand seen at RV dealerships drops. This leads to price decreases and discounts on most, if not all, motorhomes, travel trailers and fifth wheels during the fall and winter months. America’s Largest RV Show marks this shift in the RV marketplace.
General RV will be offering some of its biggest sales of the year on all of the RVs on display at the show in Hershey. Many of those sales and discounts will continue after the show at General RV’s location in nearby Elizabethtown, Pa.

General RV is Pennsylvania’s leading motorhome dealership, according to Statistical Surveys. Its first Pennsylvania Supercenter, located in Elizabethtown, opened in 2022 and houses the state’s largest RV service facility with 45 fully-equipped service bays. As camping continues to grow in popularity, General RV plans to expand its Elizabethtown location to better serve the Pennsylvania community.
In 2024, the company will begin a 14,000-square-foot expansion. The renovations will include an expanded parts and sales department, a two-lane service drive-through, a five-bay body shop and an increased parking lot able to house more than 750 RVs. Once completed, the Elizabethtown Supercenter will be the largest RV dealership in Pennsylvania.
