Prime Time Manufacturing, North America’s fastest growing RV company, was awarded the prestigious Quality Circle Award from the Recreation Vehicle Dealers’ Association (RVDA) in a ceremony kicking off the 2010 RVIA Louisville trade show.
“Prime Time Manufacturing is honored to have earned the Quality Circle Award in our very first year of business,” said Prime Time president Jeff Rank. “This award is a tremendous credit to the hard work and commitment of all our employees who have come together with a joint mission to build high quality products, while providing industry-leading services to our dealers.”
Prime Time was recognized for scoring 80 percent or above in overall dealer satisfaction as measured in the Dealer Satisfaction Index (DSI) survey conducted by RVDA. The DSI survey, which determines the Quality Circle Award winners, rates manufacturers’ performance in eight core areas: vehicle reliability/quality, parts support, dealership warranty support, vehicle design, sales support, sales territory, competitive price/value, and overall dealer communications.
“The DSI survey is an important tool for the measurement of the quality of our products, our manufacturing processes, and our sales and service policies,” said Rank. “We want to thank our valued dealer partners for honoring us with this prestigious award. Prime Time has geared up with an outstanding line-up of innovative and high quality towables for 2011 and we look forward to serving our dealers and retail customers with more award-winning products and services.”

Why Prime Time?
Whether you are considering the purchase of your first RV or your next RV, we are confident you will enjoy the following advantages of Prime Time Manufacturing:
DESIGN
Prime Time Manufacturing understands the critical elements of designing a winning recreational vehicle – floorplan, eye appeal, storage, and convenience. There aren’t many secrets in the RV industry and most manufacturers offer similar versions of the same floorplan. However, the true genius is in the details. Is every inch of storage space fully utilized? Is there adequate pantry space for both tall and short items? Where do you put your trash can? Does each feature maximize user comfort and convenience? Are the decors residential yet durable? We have spent years listening to customers talk about what they want in the “perfect” RV. Drawing on that feedback, countless hours are incorporated into dissecting every detail to fully maximize the enjoyment each of our models will provide. We are fanatical about design because we want to ensure that our RVs will EXCEED your expectations.
QUALITY
Prime Time Manufacturing chose to headquarter its operations in Wakarusa, Indiana, the center of northern Indiana’s Amish community. This is an area where old world craftsmanship, traditional work ethics, and doing things the “right” way are still emphasized and valued. Our executive management team has over 100 years of manufacturing experience that allows Prime Time to engineer and build an RV that will withstand the test of time. Every unit we ship is put through a rigorous 65 point system inspection at our factory AND at your selling dealership to make sure your first camping adventure is memorable for all of the right reasons. Finally, we provide a comprehensive Emergency Roadside Assistance program for your additional safety, convenience, and peace of mind. For us, quality isn’t just a slogan, it’s our culture.
VALUE
Prime Time Manufacturing is a division of Forest River, Inc, one of North America’s largest producers of towable recreational products. Because of our tremendous corporate sales volume, we are able to leverage massive purchasing power to produce an RV with more features for the money than any other company in the industry. We also operate with extremely low overhead. You won’t find Prime Time advertising in national trade magazines or traditional media sources – we rely on good old fashioned word of mouth advertising. Our dealers aren’t rewarded with luxurious trips or outfitted with fancy wardrobes – they only get high quality, fast selling RVs that are priced lower than the competition. We rely on our Corporate offices to take care of payroll, payables, receivables, accounting, Human Resources, legal, and many other operational functions - these additional costs DON’T go into the price of a Prime Time RV. We understand that the purchase of your next RV is one of the most important decisions you will make and we are committed to giving you the best value for your hard earned dollar.
FINANCIAL STABILITY
Since the purchase of your next RV will represent a significant financial commitment, you’ll be glad to know that Prime Time Manufacturing will be here to provide parts and service for the duration of your ownership experience. Prime Time is a division of Forest River, Inc, a company owned by Berkshire Hathaway, one of the world’s largest holding companies with a market capitalization in excess of $150 billion. Forest River provides the corporate umbrella under which Prime Time operates. No other RV company in the world can offer the financial stability afforded to a customer of Prime Time Manufacturing.
Going Green
Prime Time Manufacturing is committed to sustainable management of our natural resources and the protection of the environment through our company’s choices and behavior.
Leading the way in this effort is the exclusive use of CARB Compliant construction materials. Recognized as one of the most stringent air quality standards in North America, CARB Compliant materials will help your family breathe easier and keep them healthier.
Extensive research, testing, and implementation of the newest composite materials reduces the weight of our RVs, improves the fuel economy of your tow vehicle, and minimizes carbon emissions into the environment.
Utilizing lean manufacturing techniques, carefully choosing our manufacturing processes, and employing extensive in-house recycling are just a few additional areas where Prime Time Manufacturing has chosen to “Go Green”.

Sanibel Fifth Wheels
Following up on the success of Prime Time’s first fifth wheel product, the wildly successful Crusader, plans are underway for launch of the company’s next fifth wheel product – the fully featured Sanibel.
Prime Time understands that great floorplans are the most important factor when deciding which fifth wheel to purchase. Whether you are looking for a rear living room, rear entertainment, or need an emphasis on the kitchen, Sanibel will offer the utmost in user-friendly CONVENIENCE, STORAGE, and COMFORT. As we’ve demonstrated with every Prime Time product, even the smallest details of Sanibel will be analyzed to ensure that your expectations are not only satisfied, but exceeded.
Tremendous eye appeal is a standard feature on all Prime Time products. So, you can be assured that Sanibel will be in exclusive company by offering only SOLID CHERRY hardwood cabinet doors and drawers. Accented with BRUSHED NICKEL HARDWARE and CROWN MOLDINGS, Sanibel will have a look that is normally reserved for units costing thousands of dollars more. PREMIUM COUNTERTOPS, DESIGNER APPLIANCES, UPGRADED FURNISHINGS, and residential carpet and vinyl flooring will complete an interior ensemble worthy of admiration.
On the outside, Sanibel will provide numerous benefits – emotional, physical, and financial. With its stylish and AERODYNAMIC FRONT CAP, Sanibel will cut thru the wind allowing for a SMOOTH, STABLE RIDE eliminating tension and stress. Your wallet will be given special consideration as the Sanibel front cap will provide INCREASED FUEL ECONOMY with its rounded design. Once you arrive at the campground, Sanibel has been engineered to offer INDUSTRY BEST TURNING RADIUS to help you back into even the tightest parking spots. Sanibel will offer several new and innovative exterior features not usually found on ordinary fifth wheels that will easily multiply your comfort and convenience. Of course, Sanibel will have many of the innovative exterior features found on other Prime Time products – SLAM LATCH BAGGAGE DOORS, ELECTRIC STABILIZER JACKS, ELECTRIC AWNING, UNIVERSAL DOCKING CENTER, and an UPGRADED SUSPENSION PACKAGE.
Finally, our engineers have left nothing to chance when selecting the precise components to build a fifth wheel worthy of being called a Prime Time. The exterior walls will be 100% WELDED, ALUMINUM FRAMED, LAMINATED construction. We are taking no shortcuts – we will laminate the walls, the slide-out walls and roof, and even the entire main floor – to make sure Sanibel offers the best insulated, strongest, and quietest fifth wheel in its segment. We are ENCLOSING THE UNDERBELLY with a one-piece, corrugated ABS panel that will allow for adequate heating of your vital holding tanks and dump valves during extended season usage. Water lines will be carefully routed to prevent unnecessary freeze-ups on those cold weather trips and UPGRADED INSULATION, an EXTRA LARGE FURNACE, and ADVANCED AIR CONDITIONING systems will promote year around comfort.
