I don't think scam is an appropriate description. It was more like a delusional business plan that too many people bought into including Debraga himself.

Mumkin,

I can tell you for a fact the first Advanced RV Sprinter did not come from Minot, ND. I have a photo of the window sticker of the very first Advanced RV as well as my own. I'm the white...

Booster, I guess it is a matter of how we define a mom and pop business. If you asked me I would say Morehead Design in North Carolina was a mom and pop in the B business. He runs a business where he...

I purchased my Great West Van from a dealer and I did not pay a cent until I took delivery. Mikes47, they sold through dealers unlike our Advanced RVs direct. However, I did go to the previous owner...

I saw one vitriolic message on Facebook from I assume a Sterling employee in response to a Sterling message. It was a no sympathy response with a threat of action if he did not get his paycheck...

First I would talk to Lake Region RVs. They might be able to help or have sources for custom work or help you get them from GWVan if they do exist in inventory there.
