My 2 day lesson in Omaha with Steve Avant was great. Steve was knowledgeable and nice. I would recommend him and your services to anyone. Thanks.

My wife and I are thrilled with our lessons.  Randy ( and Kathy) went beyond our expectations in every way possible.  My wife ( who was greatly intimidated by this venture) became confident and secure in her driving after beginning the lesson on the verge of being overwhelmed.  The transformation was dramatic and substantial.  Randy was patient, empathetic,IMG_59331641 thorough, linear, and tireless in his instruction.  His method and manner incredibly professional.  We also enrolled in the “know your RV” component which was crucial for us since we had no prior experience at all.  We didn’t even know that our inverter wasn’t turned on.  Randy even went shopping for items that we needed to be successful in our efforts.  Kathy gave my wife hours of attention in the details of what needed to be done to travel efficiently inside our RV.  We even dined with them each day.  They also welcomed our dogs into their fenced backyard so that they could get some exercise.  We are thrilled!

Hello -My husband and I would give Brian an Excellent review.   He worked with us for 12 hours over 2 days and was great.   He completely knows his stuff, is very patient and thorough and helped us tremendously.  He taught us a lot of good tips and tricks and we are happy to report that we successfully got our 44 foot fifth wheel into a camping spot yesterday with a blind back.   I’ve attached a short video of him doing his thing.

I wanted to thank you for the outstanding trailer lesson on May 14, 2022.  Randy was superb and very thorough in the training and covered every possible topic and angle, including safety measures, awarenesss, the theory and math behind trailer movement, and potential hazards to be aware of.  He spent extra time with me and my husband, answered every question we asked in depth, and other questions we didn’t even think of!

He is very personable and approachable, and makes you feel like a team member.  His positive approach and encouragement goes a long way to building confidence in driving and maneuvering our vehicle and trailer.

The proof is that, after the lesson, I was able to back my trailer today into our tight driveway without difficulty.  This is a major accomplishment, considering the large learning curve I needed to overcome.  Thank you, Randy, for your guidance and  expertise, and especially for your patience and positive attitude.  That is the best combination for learning in any situation, and has made such a large impact on our trailer trekking and our lives.

I would recommend Randy to anyone who is interested in learning how to navigate through the trailer world, and would likely repeat the lesson in the future to brush up and learn advanced skills that will enhance and enlighten our trailering experiences, as well as ensure the highest standards of safety and preparedness.  Thank you, you are a blessing!

Our apologies for not doing this feedback sooner.  Things have just been busy since we spent two and a half days in driver training with Roger Keil near Hilton Head, SC on March 14-16, 2022.

We first want to thank Roger for the effort he put into our 2 days of driving, as well as the follow-up “walk-around” day.  We both gained a tremendous amount of knowledge and skill, especially Chris who had never sat behind the wheel and didn’t even know how to start the engine!  Mark knew how to drive our coach as we previously had a similar coach for a few years, but he also definitely benefitted from Roger’s wealth of experience, knowledge, and his priceless communication style.

In addition to the value to Chris, which was mainly based on safety in the event Mark somehow becomes incapacitated and can’t drive our coach, and to gain a better understanding of the special challenges of driving a big motorhome, she also thought it was important for Mark to be in the navigator seat for a while.

In two days, Roger brought Chris from knowing nothing to being able to actually drive, maneuver, and understand our 40’11” coach! It was truly amazing.  She did not know what to expect but certainly didn’t think she would spend as much time driving alongside 18 wheelers on I-95, on city expressways with fast-merging traffic, through narrow downtown streets, over tall bridges, etc. Of course, that is what was needed and it is probably a good thing that she didn’t know all of that ahead of time.

She was not interested in being the primary driver of our coach, or even driving it a lot, but now feels confident that she can drive if she needs to. We plan to have her practice periodically while at home and have done that once since we arrived back north. She will continue to build her skills and gain experience on our trips.

Since our training, Chris has talked up the value of such driver training, especially for co-pilots like herself, to all of our friends who also have RVs. Most of our female co-pilot friends are afraid to attempt driving their rigs (some pull-behinds) as Chris was but she encouraged them to even take a customized backing course. We don’t think any of them had really thought about taking a course but are hoping they will.

We purchased the 1/2 day walk-around training sort of as an after-thought, but, once again, it was extremely valuable as Roger had much knowledge of all of our systems. He didn’t rush through anything and answered all our questions.

​

We’ll attempt to attach a couple of photos to this email and hope they go through.

Thank you, Roger, for our personalized training days!  It was an outstanding experience for both of us, and we do sincerely hope our paths will cross again.

Sincerely,
