Today, we pause to honor all Veterans who have served — and those currently serving. Your dedication, sacrifice, and commitment to protecting our freedoms is what allows Americans to enjoy the open road… the freedom to travel, explore, camp, and chase new horizons.
As a proud Veteran myself, this day is personal. The values forged through military service — discipline, integrity, accountability, teamwork and respect — are the same core values we’ve built our business on since day one. They guide every repair we perform, every customer interaction, and every RV that leaves our shop.
To every Veteran within our California RV Specialists family — our customers, our industry partners, our friends, and our fellow RV community members — thank you. We honor you today, and every day.
From all of us here in Lodi…
we wish you a safe, meaningful, and memorable Veteran’s Day weekend.

This Is Our Very First Newsletter
We’re excited to officially launch our newsletter series — bringing education, RV industry insight, maintenance guidance, project updates, and transparency straight from inside our working shop floor.
For those who may be new to us:
California RV Specialists is an independent RV repair facility located in Lodi, CA — proudly serving RV owners since 2003. We specialize in customer pay, insurance claims, warranty, upgrades, inspections, RV consulting, and expert witness services. Unlike dealerships, we do not sell RVs — our mission is simple:
Fix and maintain the RV you already own — and keep you safely traveling and making memories.
Our shop services 3–5 units daily, and our team documents real-world failures and best practices so we can teach & prevent future failures from happening to others.
From here forward — these newsletters will bring you:
- What’s showing up in the shop
- What failures we’re seeing the most
- What upgrades are worth doing
- What mistakes are costing RV owners money
- What maintenance matters the most
- Industry updates + trends from experts
Thank you for being here. Thank you for supporting independent service. And thank you to all who served.
From all of us here at California RV Specialists in Lodi, CA —
Have a safe, meaningful, and memorable Veteran’s Day weekend.
