I also anticipate that you'll find the best USED deals AFTER the biggest RV show in your area. The best time to buy NEW is at the biggest show (RV SuperShow in Tampa is one of the biggest in the country), and after that show dealers have a lot of USED equipment they took on trade.
I see your point about shows. While I recently moved to South Carolina, I was born and raised in Tampa. I'm eye balling the Tampa show and the Hersey show and have no time line. When I attended an RV show in Greenville SC about a month ago, I polled the local dealers after that show and each had sold about 40-50 units, with about an 7% run off for folks who couldn't get financed. Anyhow, their lots were jammed with traded used units. Scaling up a small market like Greenville SC to the shows in Tampa or Hersey, I can see how this would be a great buying opportunity.
