I founded Rick's RV over 38 years ago. I still enjoy coming to work and leading this excellent team we have assembled over the years. Outside of work, I am blessed with a wonderful family; my wife, Vicki, and my kids Vince and Angie.

Hi, I'm Mike and I'm part of the family ownership. My Papaw started the business. I've been with Rick's RV Center for over 30 years. When I'm not thinking about ways to fire our Internet Sales Manager, I'm busy helping our customers with their camping needs. My free time is spent with my wife, Kim, and kids; Jack, Molly, Brian and Danny. Thank you to all of our customer's that keep my kids fed!

I've kept busy over the past 25 years by fixing computers, ordering inventory, and helping my customer's find the perfect RV. I am happily married to my wife, Carrie, and we have 4 adorable children. In my free time I enjoy model trains, especially when my wife lets me wear the engineer's cap. Choo Choo!

Dave Whalen

Sales Manager

Joining the Rick’s RV family back in 2006 was the best career decision I could have made. It was either that or the glue factory, so in hind sight, it wasn’t that hard of a decision. I’m truly blessed to have found a place like Rick’s RV to provide for my family and grow as a person, father and husband. Speaking of growing, I work out all the time with my best friend Tom and my muscles are getting really big! I can even bounce my pecs! I have a beautiful wife, Cathy, and 5 awesome kids; Briana, Ashley, Matthew, Tyler and Charlotte.

I've been the Business Manager at Rick's for 18 years. I bought a travel trailer from Brian and had so much fun I never left! When I'm not getting our customer's great terms, I enjoy spending my time with my family at the campground.

When I'm not busy pulling your motorhomes and travel trailers into our service department, I can be found enjoying my Jayco Swift with my amazing wife Diane and our 3 sons; Stephen, Ryan and Matthew.

Hi, I’m Kevin Finefield. I’ve been at Ricks RV for 13 years, and in the RV industry for 33. At 60 years old, the guys at work think I’m crazy, because I enjoy racing off-road motorcycles, mountain bike riding, and camping at the motorcycle races. I’m married to Ginger, and we have a son, Christian, and a daughter, Stefanie, who’s married with our three beautiful grand children.

I've run the Internet Sales Department at Rick's RV for 13 years. I really enjoy coming into work every day! The only thing I love more is going home to my beautiful wife Stacey and wonderful kids Ben and Emma.

Joe "The Loaf" Farkas

Sales Associate / Director of Communications

I'm entering my 9th year at Rick's RV Center. I grew up in Joliet, and probably know you, or at least one of your family members. I am fun loving, talkative, and spend 86.5% of my time on social media. You will rarely see me without a phone to my ear. I love spending time with my wife, Alyssa, and our two beautiful daughters. Come in and pick out a new RV... or just come in for a high five!

Bryan Niedermeyer

Truck Accessories Manager

This is my seventh year as the Truck Accessories Manager at Rick's RV Center. I don't own a truck because they don't make a 10 passenger pick up, but I can accessorize yours! Outside of work, my free time is happily spent with my 8 kids and beautiful fiancé Angelica.
