Real-World RV Repair Transparency • Product Education • Industry Influence
Today’s RV consumer is no longer passive. They research before they buy, they watch before they trust, and they take advice from real repair technicians before they believe advertisements or sales-driven marketing.
This is where Dustin Simpson stands apart.
Dustin is not a “studio-based influencer.” He is an active RV repair facility owner with over 25 years of real-world industry experience — documenting actual failures, causes, proper repairs, and correct installation methods every day.
Manufacturers, accessory companies, component suppliers, and industry partners hire Dustin because the RV public trusts his voice — and trust converts.
Why Brands Hire Dustin
Dustin sees products long after the marketing launch hype is over.
He sees products:
- after they’ve been installed
- after customers modify them
- after they’ve been overloaded, mis-used, or incorrect installs are attempted
- after environmental damage, road stress, vibration and wear cycles
- after warranty failures and consumer complaints begin appearing
This provides a perspective most influencers cannot offer.
Dustin has direct visibility into:
- which products hold up
- which consistently fail
- which instructions cause confusion or misapplication
- where consumers misunderstand engineering intent
- where design shortcuts become expensive 2–5 year warranty liability
Dustin turns this knowledge into content that reduces warranty exposure, increases proper usage, and strengthens long-term consumer confidence in your brand.
