Buying local vs the national dealers
It may be time to begin thinking of replacing our fiver. If we do start searching, what experiences do you folks have regarding buying from a smaller local dealer that is closer vs a big national deal...

If I ever need repairs that I can't handle, DRV has been excellent about authorizing and working with independent repair shops or even mobile repair services. We bought our previous DRV from a local dealer - it didn't make any difference as far as service was concerned that I could tell. One warranty visit for a broken slideout gear was handled OK by the south Houston lot while the other (at the RV dealer's north Houston lot) for a failed Dometic fridge cooling unit was terrible.
We saved a LOT of money by purchasing our current DRV from a dealer located 1000 miles away. Service hasn't been any problem since the DRV hasn't required any shop visits since purchase in May 2014.
