Midway Auto & RV

What Midway Auto & RV does

Midway Auto & RV is a family-owned multi-location dealership group headquartered in Billings, Montana, operating four retail showrooms across Wyoming and Montana (Billings MT, Cody WY, Riverton WY, Sheridan WY) and self-claiming the position of Wyoming's largest RV dealership. Founded in 1968 by Keith Grant, Sr. as an auto body repair shop in Lovell, Wyoming, the business transitioned into an auto dealership in 1997 under Ken Grant, who expanded into additional Wyoming and Montana locations. The company is currently led by Keith Grant, Jr. (brother of Ken Grant), who assumed control in 2018 alongside the opening of a state-of-the-art 30,000-square-foot flagship facility on eight acres in Billings.

The company sells new and pre-owned recreational vehicles (5th Wheels, Travel Trailers, Motorhomes, Toy Haulers, Pop-ups, Truck Beds), passenger vehicles (Cars, SUVs, Trucks, Vans), and boats and powersports units (Boats, ATVs/UTVs, Motorcycles, Snowmobiles, Trailers). Complementary service offerings include auto, marine, and RV repair (warranty work, solar installation, appliance repair, etc.), parts, in-house and third-party financing, trade-in valuation, and a "We Buy" direct-purchase program. The company operates as a direct-to-consumer retailer with online inventory browsing and quote-based pricing; no proprietary technology platform or AI capabilities are disclosed.

The business generates revenue primarily through one-time vehicle and RV sales, with ancillary revenue from service and repair (professional services), trade-in transactions, and direct purchases. The customer base is horizontally segmented across RV enthusiasts/campers, conventional vehicle buyers, and powersports/marine buyers, served through physical showrooms, the company website, and SMS-based marketing. Midway Auto & RV remains privately held and family-controlled, with no disclosed external investors, funding rounds, or parent company.

Direct peers

• Camping World Holdings: Largest US RV retailer with 200+ locations across the country, offering new and used RVs alongside service, parts, and financing. Closest direct comparable to Midway given multi-line RV dealership model, in-house financing, and integrated service operations.
• Lazydays Holdings: Public RV dealership group with flagship supercenters selling new and used motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth wheels. Comparable to Midway in premium showroom strategy, multi-category RV inventory, and service-driven revenue model.
• General RV Center: One of the largest family-owned RV dealer groups in the US with supercenters across multiple states. Highly comparable to Midway given family ownership legacy, large-format facilities, and broad RV/powersports inventory mix.
• Blue Compass RV: Fast-growing RV dealer group operating supercenters across the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic. Comparable as a multi-location RV retailer with expanded vehicle and powersports offerings pursuing regional consolidation.
• Holiday World RV: Multi-location RV dealer primarily serving Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas with new and used RVs plus service and parts. Operates a similar multi-store RV retail model but in a different regional footprint than Midway.
• McClain's RV Superstores: Family-owned multi-store RV dealer with locations across Oklahoma, Texas, and Arkansas. Comparable to Midway in family ownership culture, multi-line RV inventory, and emphasis on service operations.

Broad incumbents

• AutoNation: Largest US automotive retailer with 250+ franchises across multiple brands. Comparable as a large-scale, multi-store vehicle retailer offering financing, trade-ins, and service — though focused on cars and trucks rather than RVs.
• Lithia Motors: Largest US automotive retailer by revenue with hundreds of stores nationwide and an aggressive M&A rollup strategy. Overlapping in dealership operating model and multi-state expansion playbook but focused on passenger vehicles.
• Sonic Automotive: Multi-brand automotive retailer with franchise and pre-owned stores across the US, including EchoPark used-vehicle outlets. Comparable in dealership operating model and pre-owned vehicle focus but lacks the RV specialization that defines Midway.

Regional players

• Lichtsinn RV: Iowa-based RV dealership specializing in Winnebago and other premium motorhome brands with full service and parts operations. Comparable regional RV retailer with similar product depth and service-driven business model, though operating in a different geography.
