I'm jealous, there is nothing like that close to me. Before shipping my coach off to Missouri for the engine transplant I called all the local shops trying to get an estimate. Most of them just said no, and the shops that didn't say no wouldn't give me an estimate other than we charge an extra $50 an hour for motorhomes but not even a ballpark for hours.
The last time I had a motorhome worked on locally was to replace some broken wheel studs before I headed to a new job in Seattle. I got about 40 miles down the road and the brakes went out. I ended up taking it to an independent truck shop in North Bend, the first population heading into Seatle after Snoqualmie Pass. Turns out the shop left a broken wheel stud inside the drum. Wiped out some no longer available wedge brake parts so they had to replace all the brakes with 'S' cam brakes. Fortunately, the shop that messed up covered the bill with a lot of prodding from the North Bend shop and threats of lawsuits.
