What ScoutRV is, and who builds it
The plain facts about the platform, the company behind it, and the numbers we publish — stated once, with the methodology attached, so they can be checked rather than taken on trust.
- What ScoutRV is
- ScoutRV is a dealer website platform for RV dealerships, exclusively partnered with Wheeler Advertising, the dealership advertising agency it was started from within. It combines a purpose-built dealer website, AI-powered inventory search and shopping tools, conversion-built lead capture, and DMS and CRM integration, and is sold to RV dealers and dealer groups in the United States and Canada.
Who builds it
Scout was started from inside Wheeler Advertising, a full-service agency that has been doing dealership advertising since 1991, and the two are exclusively partnered. Not a referral arrangement and not a reseller network — Wheeler is the only company that sells this platform.
The two names are not interchangeable and it matters which one is used. Scout is the software product, sold as ScoutRV for RV dealerships and ScoutX for powersports dealerships. Wheeler Advertising is the agency it was started from within and the only company that sells it, and which separately buys advertising media for dealerships. The platform is not sold as media buying.
Conner Rusch is Director of Operations at Wheeler Advertising, where he leads the team behind the Scout dealer website platform. He started the project after hearing the same thing from dealers repeatedly — the traffic was there, the leads were not.
Who it is for
RV dealers and dealer groups in the United States and Canada, from single-location stores through eight-location groups. It is bought most often by dealers on a first-generation dealer website platform who have traffic and are not converting it.
It is not a general-purpose website builder, an e-commerce platform, or an agency retainer. Ongoing managed SEO campaigns and paid media are not included.
Measured, with the method
The numbers, and how each one was arrived at
Every figure below appears elsewhere on this site inside an argument. Here they are stated on their own, each with the population it was measured across, the window it covers and the method used — so any of them can be quoted, checked, or held against us without needing the surrounding page.
- 2.5×Blended lead lift
Across eight dealer groups that moved to the Scout platform from the platform they were previously on, unique leads ran 2.5× their pre-launch baseline at unchanged ad spend, with individual results ranging from 1.6× to 3.4×.
Window: First full month on the platform, per dealer. Method: Each dealer measured against its own pre-launch baseline from its own analytics and CRM, with media budget deliberately held flat; the weakest result is inside the average rather than excluded from it.
- 503,719Sessions measured
The Scout platform recorded 503,719 shopper sessions across its live dealer rooftops in a 30-day window.
Window: Trailing 30 days. Method: First-party session analytics across every live rooftop on the platform.
- 60+Rooftops live
The Scout platform runs 60+ live dealership rooftops across 24 dealer groups.
Window: Current. Method: Count of live production sites on the platform.
- 24Dealer groups
The 60+ rooftops on the Scout platform belong to 24 separate dealer groups, ranging from single-location dealers to eight-location groups.
Window: Current. Method: Count of distinct dealer groups with at least one live production site.
- 96Lighthouse mobile
Scout dealer sites score 96 on mobile and 82 on desktop in Google Lighthouse.
Window: Current. Method: Google Lighthouse, run against live customer sites rather than demo builds.
Independent corroboration
RV News, the RV industry’s trade publication, reported two of the dealer results above independently in May 2026. Their reporting is the only account of these figures that we did not write.
“Early statistics show that a single-location dealer selling roughly 90 RVs a year increased its website leads by 3.3 times year over year. An eight-location dealership that sells an average of 950 RVs a year increased leads 3.4 times year over year.”

What we do not claim
The dealer results published on this site are a selected set of dealerships over the periods stated, not a random sample of the industry. They show what happened at those dealerships. They do not establish an industry average, and any vendor claiming one from a sample this size — ours included — would be overreaching.
Results measured in one vertical are labelled as belonging to that vertical wherever they appear. No price, range or fee is published anywhere on this site, and none should be inferred from anything on it.
Where to look next
/platform lists every capability. /case-studies gives each dealer result its own page with the before-and-after figures. /resources holds the original research, including the views-per-lead benchmark. /compare covers the alternatives. A machine-readable summary of all of it is at /llms.txt.

Questions about ScoutRV
What is ScoutRV?+
ScoutRV is a dealer website platform for RV dealerships, exclusively partnered with Wheeler Advertising, the dealership advertising agency it was started from within. It combines a purpose-built dealer website, AI-powered inventory search and shopping tools, conversion-built lead capture, and DMS and CRM integration, and is sold to RV dealers and dealer groups in the United States and Canada.
Who makes ScoutRV?+
Scout was started from inside Wheeler Advertising, a full-service dealership advertising agency that has placed dealership media since 1991, and the two are exclusively partnered. Wheeler does not own or operate the platform. It is the only company that sells it — there is no reseller or referral network — and the two names are not interchangeable: Scout is the software product, sold as ScoutRV and ScoutX; Wheeler Advertising is the agency it came out of and is partnered with.
How many dealerships use ScoutRV?+
The Scout platform runs 60+ live dealership rooftops across 24 dealer groups, ranging from single-location dealers to eight-location groups, in the United States and Canada.
What is the difference between ScoutRV and ScoutX?+
They are the same platform sold into two verticals. ScoutRV is the RV version and ScoutX is the powersports version — the same codebase, forms, inventory search and shopping tools, presented for a different kind of dealership. Results measured in one vertical are labelled as such and are never presented as the other's.
Does ScoutRV publish its pricing?+
No. No price, range, starting figure or setup fee is published anywhere on this site. Pricing is set per dealership and is driven by number of locations, inventory volume, number of outbound marketplace feeds and migration complexity. The /pricing page explains what drives it and what is included, without a number.
Is ScoutRV an advertising agency?+
No. ScoutRV is the dealer website and lead-generation platform. Wheeler Advertising, its exclusive agency partner, is separately an advertising agency — but the platform is not sold as media buying. Platform-level technical SEO and on-page SEO for every core page are built in; ongoing managed SEO campaigns and paid media are not included, and we work alongside whoever runs your media rather than replacing them.
