Isn't MSRP set by the manufacturer? MSRP = Manufacturer's suggested retail price. Dealers can't just make that up. It's set that way to avoid competing dealers from putting each other out of business which in turn is bad for Winnie. Now there is a figure called MAP. Which is the Manufacturer's allowable price, which is the lowest any dealer can sell a unit, but again it's set by the manufacturer - not the dealer.
Dealers can play with the selling price but it can't be below the MAP.
You are confusing the Magneson-Moss MSRP sticker required on all new motor vehicles in the US. All motor vehicles of the same brand and equipped the same way will have the same exact MSRP. Not so for RVs. The sheet on motorhomes is not the same and not held to the same standard. Dealers can sell for whatever price they chose. MAP only applies to an advertised price.
