Vogt RV - A Texas Tradition Since 1945
| 1945 | Our Father, Virgal Vogt opened Twin Points Camp on Eagle Mountain Lake in Fort Worth, Texas. People from all over the state would come for fishing, swimming and boating. Although he sold it in 1950, it was a very popular resort for over 50 years. |
| 1950 | Dad opened a Marine Dealership "Vogt Sales & Service" on Belknap Street in Haltom City,Texas just outside Fort Worth. Every member of our family and many of our friends worked at Vogt Marine, where we learned by example how to treat our customers and employees. Our Father was a very honest and truthful man and he taught us all the value of being truthful and honest. He lived by the motto: " You can't be right by doing wrong, and you can't be wrong by doing right " |
| 1958 | Dad, Marion Herring and Theo Cromer organized the Tarrant County Marine Dealers Association. They also organized and started the very first Fort Worth Boat Show at Will Rogers Exhibit Building in Fort Worth. |
| 1967 | My brother, Danny Vogt, at 17 years old started a truck camper business on the lot next to the marine store. A Truck Camper business that grew and developed into one of the leading RV Dealerships in the United States. |
| 1982 | Danny opened Vogt GMC, AMC, Jeep, Motorhomes in Arlington, Texas. |
| 1983 | I went to work for Danny selling RV's. We have been working together ever since. |
| 1985 | We aquired Pontiac and later Isuzu franchises and opened a New Automobile Dealership in South Arlington. |
| 1987 | We sold the automobile franchises to focus entirely on the business we love, Vogt Family Fun Center in Haltom City, TX. Vogt RV is a family business, so if an issue comes up it's easy to find a member of the Vogt Family. Presently, about 25 % of our employees are family members but we consider every employee and customer a part of our family. In the last 43 years we have sold and serviced thousands upon thousands of RV's. Additionaly, over the last 10 years we have sold more new Motorhomes in Texas than any other Dealer. We know and understand RV's. Over the last 40 years, we have owned and operated nine RV Dealerships. |
At Vogt RV, we value each and every customer and can thank Dad for teaching us how to take care of our customers and employees
