TO OUR CUSTOMERS:
My first training in the business world was working in my father's
appliance business in Nebraska. He had a simple philosophy: "Offer the public a
good product at a fair price and keep the promises you make." In 1971, Altmans
opened its doors in Baldwin Park, California with that same business philosophy.
Because of that conviction, Altmans is the oldest major RV dealer in Southern
California today.
We proudly feature Winnebago brand products, the best value in motor homes on the market today. With the factory's permission, we computer price our motor homes as would a factory outlet, well below sticker price, to give you a hassle-free, pleasant shopping experience. We also serve you after the sale as I would want to be treated.
After over 38 years in business, we have probably sold more new Winnebago's than any other dealer in the world! Looks like my father was right!
I invite you to look over our web site and see what Altmans is all about and what we have to offer. Use it to compare us to other dealers and you will see we are truly unique. I personally want to invite you to join the Altmans Family of satisfied customers.
Founder, Altmans Winnebago

OUR FOUNDER
Dave Altman was introduced to the world of RV's in 1968 and soon decided
that fulfilling people's dreams was his life's calling. In 1971 he opened Dave
Altmans RV Center in Baldwin Park, CA, now known as Altmans Winnebago, growing
it into one of the largest RV dealerships in Southern California.
Dave was an 18 year board member and past president of RVDA
(Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association) and was the chairman of the RV/MH
Heritage Foundation that maintains the RV/MH Hall of Fame, Museum, Library and
Conference Center in Elkhart, Ind. He is credited as the founder, and served 20
years as President, of the Southern California RV
Dealers Association.
He was a founder and past Chairman of the California State RV Dealers Association.He is the sixth recipient of the prestigious RVDA James Summers award and was recently honored with the David J. Humphreys RV Industry Unity Award, established to recognize an individual who continuously strives to encourage the multiple constituencies of the RV industry to work collectively for the growth and bettermentof the RV industry. He chaired the first RV dealers independent convention and was the founding Chairman of the national RV Rental Association. Altmans Winnebago has been recognized by Winnebago Industries with their "Circle of Excellence" Award every year it has been presented.
To
Dave, the value of these awards was not in the recognition he received, but in
the acknowledgment by others of his struggle to make the business he loved more
professional and better for its customers.
