My RV
El Cajon towable RV dealer with a 4.7-star rating and 90 reviews, known for no-pressure sales and quick consignment.
East San Diego County is trailer country, and El Cajon has a small, useful cluster of lots for anyone shopping towables. Three dealerships here sell travel trailers and fifth wheels, with another eight nearby in the county. The local average rating sits at 4.7, which is high for a market this size and suggests buyers are mostly leaving satisfied. Here is how the three stack up.

My RV carries the most weight with 90 reviews and a 4.7 rating, and it handles new and used units plus motorhomes. It also offers financing, service, consignment and trade, so you can bring your current trailer in and drive out with something else. Three T RV is the smaller, used-only option at 4.5 across 71 reviews, with financing and delivery available. We Purchase RVs has a perfect 5.0 but only 3 reviews, so treat that score as a thin sample and judge the lot on what is actually sitting there.
Two of the three local dealers list used inventory, and that fits the market. Travel trailers take abuse quietly, so a used unit deserves a real inspection before money changes hands. Get underneath and look at the frame and axles, then check the roof seams and every corner for water stains. Ask when the tires were made, not just how they look. Financing is offered at two of these lots, but a pre-approval from your own bank or credit union gives you a number to bargain against before you sit down at the desk.
El Cajon puts you within an easy drive of the mountains and the desert, which is half the reason to own a trailer here. Take the first trip somewhere close so a problem shows up near home rather than three hours out. Lakeside and Alpine are short hops for a shakedown weekend, and the Anza-Borrego desert is a straightforward tow for a longer stay. Do the delivery walk-through slowly at the lot, testing the water pump, fridge, furnace and slide-outs with the service tech standing next to you. Ask them to show you the bypass valves and the fuse panel.
There are 3 travel trailer and fifth wheel dealers in El Cajon, and 8 more nearby. Two of the three sell used units, so the used selection is broader than the new selection locally.
Two of the three offer financing: My RV and Three T RV. We Purchase RVs lists service only. Getting pre-approved at your own bank first still makes sense so you know your ceiling before you negotiate.
The local average is 4.7. My RV sits at 4.7 from 90 reviews, Three T RV at 4.5 from 71, and We Purchase RVs at 5.0 from just 3 reviews, so weight that last number lightly.
Used makes sense if you want someone else to have handled the first round of warranty fixes, provided the inspection is clean. New gives you a warranty and a known history. Either way, have the roof, seals and tires checked before you sign.
