I think sharing prices is a good idea. Typical car prices paid are readily available on line, so we deserve the same!
I have a 2006 Leisure Travel that I bought used. In 2006, it's list price was $105K and it went out the door for $89K including tax and title (Florida has 6% sales tax). Last year I had a quote on a $115K Road Trek - $100K out the door, including tax and title. Lazy Days in the Tampa area of Florida quoted me $79K plus tax and title on a 2011 ERA that listed at about $100K. I think B discounting is fairly consistent.
I have found Lazy Days RV of Tampa to be the most aggressive in terms of discounting, but low pressure on the sales side. We were looking at Bs there last weekend. When we walked in, the receptionist asked us if we wanted a sales person, or wanted to wander on our own. We said our own and she gave us a map to the Bs. You need a map because Lazy Days is like the Disney World of RVs. Also, they will give you a price over the phone, which makes sense as many people do not buy their RVs from a local dealer or do not even have a local dealer.
One last point. If you are buying now, either make sure you get a 2014 chassis, or an extra deep discount on a 2013 chassis. The 2014 is a slightly updated body style, but will have significantly improved anti-collision systems. If you wait until 2015, you will get cross-wind assistance, too. But, if you follow the forums, you know that already! Sorry for the long post.
