I found using RV Trader to search nationwide found us the best deal on our new unit. We live by Reno NV, the coach we found was in L.A. We were able to negotiate a $250 delivery charge and, after sending the dealer pictures of our coach, were able to agree on a trade in value (dependent on the delivery man's inspection to make sure we weren't lying) so he was able to drive ours back. The logistics might not work out so well for you but RV Trader saved us many thousands of dollars over the other places we looked. Think of picking up the RV as a mini vacation..
Mini vacation is a great way to look at this rv shopping trip. I enjoy visiting Texas, and I enjoy seeing different floor plans, so it is easy to adopt that attitude. I do hope we find the right one on this trip. If not, we will continue to look.
I have been looking at rv trader, and have found some leads. Your purchase story is inspiring. As a newbie, I am not as confident as you were, so I will want to see and drive the rig rather than arrange delivery. Maybe I'll be that confident on my next one.
