fagnaml Report post Posted October 31, 2017 Today I received an unsolicited e-mail in my Gmail account to join the new All Inclusive Motorhome Club (AIM). The link to this club's website says they are a new organization exclusively for motorhome owners --> https://www.aimclub.org/ Has anyone heard of / joined AIM? Is this organization forming as a result of the churn within FMCA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillAdams Report post Posted October 31, 2017 I don't know, but I hope so! If they want to be successful they will offer benefits to users of all ages and not just "Assist" which has value to only a limited number of RVers and none to full timers or younger RVers.

manholt Report post Posted November 1, 2017 NIRVC is headquartered in Texas. I think it's Lake Lewiston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
camarti1 Report post Posted November 1, 2017 By reading their website, they have a discount with Coach-net, which provides all of the services for $239. I am not fluent on comparing their services to FMCA's, but the services included seem to be comprehensive. They do limit their membership to class A,B, and C coaches. Which may or not be a draw, depending on this vote. It appears the club is giving a home address of Atlanta, GA., which is one of the locations for NIRVC. The yearly dues are $35, plus the cost of additional purchased services such as Coach-net, RV insurance discount, or Sky-Med. Again, I am not familiar with these options, just mentioning them from the AIM site. The are offering a Sturgis Gala prior to FMCA's convention in Gillette, WY. The site suggests a caravan from the Sturgis Gala to the FMCA Convention. Just offering a synopsis of what is on the website for AIM. I am not endorsing or promoting a different club, merely recapping what is being read by me on their site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crowleytj Report post Posted November 17, 2017 The All Inclusive Motorhome club was not created to go against FMCA, that was not the goal at all. The purpose was to offer a motorhome club that was the brain child of the NIRVC CEO. The concern was that there were many new to RVs and motorhomes, hence to put an effective way to train folks on todays complex systems to the new coach owners. To offer fun rallies with lots of activities and education and hands on training of coach systems. It is unique in that it is sponsored by a dealer, not a manufacturer. Many of the members are also members of FMCA. The Atlanta address is simply the AIM's Presidents mailing address. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted November 21, 2017 crowleytj. Welcome to the Forum! Since you have all the answers that I could not find...I'll make the dumb assumption, that your the Dealer in question or the President or NIRVC CEO. Solicitation by any one for a Business or a Service is a no, no on the Forum! The last AIM I bought was a Mutual Fund, that I had from 1983 to 2003! Happy Thanksgiving Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rsbilledwards Report post Posted November 22, 2017 I don't get it...In today's connected environment smart, some not so smart people with a "want to know attitude" will find the chinks in the armor and expose the answers which then reduces the credibility of those in question. Why do that? Good job Carl and Five Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Happy Thanksgiving I have no association with NIRVC, so it pretty difficult for me have any position in the company. I do run a company called Astronomical Consulting, no we have nothing to do with the RV industry. However if you need a telescope installed anywhere in the world we can help. I bought my coach from another dealer. So not sure why you think I'm advertising anything. Just simply tried to give you an honest answer to questions where the answers I saw were guessed and not quite right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted December 8, 2017 Smithy. First, congratulations are in order! Hard to tell from photo, is it a boy or girl? Second, it seemed to me, due to the contact information and email address, that you're dead on target and that is also what I was implying! I get very suspicious over unsolicited conformation or denial, especially, denial after a month of posting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
