Thanks for all the info guys. Today I started contacting dealers within a 600 mile radius for pricing. I am willing to travel for the right deal.I am sure a good deal will come along and I am very patient.
One thing I found during my 2 year search for a new FW, was that a lot of dealers are using Craigslist, RVTrader and RVT. With Craigslist, there is a nice tool that will search =every= CL listing, including Canada and Mexico. It's called Searchtempest and is very flexible on search filters. If you've got enough RAM in your computer, you can open every location at once, search through any results, then close each tab as you finish it. It will also search evil-bay, too. One thing that helps is knowledge of Boolean search logic as that will cut down on a lot false hits.
False hits are one of my biggest complaints with RVTrader. You search for a specific model and it will return many other results. RVT, OTOH, almost never returns falses, though it's much smaller.
