Testimonials

We enjoy our extra room for our scuba gear. So when we do have time off we can go diving. We have more comfort on the road. We like our shower. We are now able to eat healthier and get more exercise. The guys in the service dept. do a good job. – Rolling Dice Express Mark & Penny Batchelor

Lee and Grace say they love their 144” ARI/Volvo. Lee says, “these trucks make you money, they do not cost you money”. They enjoy healthier food by eating most of their meals in the truck, the benefit of being able to stay over night close to where they are working instead of having to make their way to a Truck Stop and appreciate the fact they can stay in a quieter more relaxing location.

After using our ARI sleeper for over a year, we continue to be impressed with ARI's product quality and service. We shopped around. ARI got our business because they made it easy to think through all the options and spec the sleeper we wanted. The price was right too. This sleeper was built to last. We are confident it will serve us well for ten years or more. Phil & Diane Madsen

“We would recommend an ARI sleeper to anyone! We talked to everyone and you can tell by looking that the quality of ARI is better. We were impressed before and we are even more impressed now that we own it! There is a huge savings from a studio sleeper to our ARI, just in the money we save from eating out, and it is a lot healthier!” Don & Donna Hanes

“Owning a sleeper has changed my life so drastically. When people ask me, I tell them don’t wait!” Fred Williams

"I could never think of going back to a regular truck now." Randy Davis

"The time you save by having your own shower is tremendous. You can get more sleep and extra miles comfortably." Dale & Kristy Martin

"We save $1200 a month just in food by using our sleeper." Ed Kupper

“I tell everyone I meet to buy an ARI Sleeper. They are the quietest going down the road and they have the best service department!” Dave Weston

To ARI’s Service Department: We really appreciate all the fine work you did on our warranty issues and the added items that we had done on our sleeper. It is nice to know that after you purchase one, you still strive to make sure your customer’s are happy. Your Service Department is a top-notch operation. Sincerely, Jim & Judy Smith Jim & Judy Smith

“ The sleeper is great, I have had no problems with it. I am looking forward to doing business with ARI again. I will defiantly tell my friends about ARI.” John Ogle

I wanted to take a minute to express how happy we are with our ARI sleeper. My wife and I bought our truck from Trans-Advantage in February of 2006. After much research and advice from others, we talked to a lot of people who had after market bunks of all makes, and I think the most satisfied people were the ones with your product. First let me say that the quality of your bunk is outstanding. The workmanship and attention to detail is far superior to your competitors. Many of the standard features on your bunk are things other guys only wish they had in theirs. Courtesy lights, brass fittings, all insulated pipes, and cedar-lined wardrobe, when mentioned, have raised many eyebrows. Great layout and design! Second, but equally important to me, is your commitment and service to your after-sold bunk. Whenever I call with questions or need help with something, your employees have been quick and eager to help. I can not say enough about Kelly, he is a real God send. He knows that bunk inside and out. I have called with questions in regards to how something works, or what I needed to do in certain situations, and right off the top of his head he would have an answer for me. He is a great representative of your company and gets our praise. He once walked me through a problem that extended after hours and was still happy to help. That is something that is hard to find these days. Most people, after 4:55PM, it's time to go home and they let you know it. But not Kelly, he stayed with me until my problem was resolved. In closing, let me say "Kudos" to ARI products and employees. The quality of both is what makes you guys number one! Sincerely, Jeff Fillpot

"Having the ARI sleeper really has improved our quality of life on the road. We make more money because we can stay out on the road longer. It is our home on the road." Keith and Donna Odom

He figures he saves about $600 per month on food. Saves a ton not staying in motels. Leased to Landstar INWAY 03 KW W900 with 120" ARI Randy Nelson and Linda Denmark

We save between $800 and $1200 per month on food alone. We can not walk out of a truck stop with out spending $30 for the two of us to eat. I saved over $3,000 last year in fuel costs because of my generator and not needing to idle the truck. John & Carla Berry

We save over $500 per month on lodging savings and meals alone. Bob & Joan Hawkins

Saving time and hassle with having a shower in the sleeper is the best. Dave Berish

“With not eating in the truck stops we save at least $20 per day on food” - Randy Kramer

"My wife and I were out west a month ago and ran into a nasty ice storm. So we pulled off into a truck stop, turned off the truck and fired up the generator. We had our showers and dinner and waited the storm out. After a couple hours the ice caused power outages everywhere, including the truck stop. But that did not bother us, we were self contained with our ARI sleeper. Convenience is the biggest thing to me. Convenience is saved money. We save a lot of money every month on coffee alone. Only regret is that we should have done it sooner."

April 2005 - We just wanted to say thanks for all your support for showing the sleeper at the shows. You make the best sleeper on the market and you should be proud of it! Thanks again! Donnie & Susan Pardue

Still loving our beautiful sleeper. Brady & Lisa Perry

This is about the "Home on the Road" article that was written in the April 2004 issue of Big Rig Owner Magazine. I just wanted to let you know that there is another Sleeper House in Shipshewana, Indiana. It is called ARI. This is where I purchased my Sleeper. For the money it is the BEST ONE IN TOWN. I was just wondering why you didn't mention them in this article???? Richard Stewart wrote the article he might want to give ARI a chance to show off what they have. Their phone number is 260-768-4704. They are #1 in my book.

We would like to thank each and every one of you for building us such a wonderful "New Home"! We absolutely love it and it sure makes life on the road easier to deal with. Believe us everyone we come into contact with will know about ARI and the great service you provide! Thanks again for everything. Pat and Tony Nee

I would just like to thank you for making a dream come true. We have talked about having a truck like this, but never imagined that it would be so great. The personalities of everyone were great. It seemed like you went out of your way to make this a great experience. We have had so many compliments on our sleeper. It is almost like I’m a tour guide. The quality is amazing! We definitely will recommend your company. Thanks for everything. We will send an 8x10 picture of our truck soon. We also entered in a truck show and won two trophies. "Best Interior" and "Best of Show"! Thanks for the great job you did.

Tom and Deb Charbonneau

We purchased our first custom built sleeper from ARI last year (October 2001). Our sleeper has made life on the road much more enjoyable. ARI designed and built our sleeper based on our ideas and requests. The gel coat walls, the rear screen door and the beautifully detailed interior give ARI a definite edge on their competition. ARI continues to provide us with outstanding customer service.
