It's all about research if looking to get the best deal, if you know the exact brand and model you want working the internet will give you something to shoot for as MSRP's are all over the place for the same rig.
I've seen some build sheets on-line that indicate what the MSRP is, whether you can get the mythical 25-35% price reduction is all about your negotiating skills and the dealer's willingness to reduce his profit margin ever so slightly as they will certainly make their margin.
Many opt to go out of state for their rigs saving a bit of money, but your local dealer may or may not choose to provide warranty service should you require it. You can only hope that going in armed with as much info to your local dealer for the particular RV you are interested in will lead to a mutual price agreement that both parties can live with.
Manufacturer's always side with their dealers to ensure maximum for both parties and build sheets are also manipulated with so called required packages that greatly inflate the MSRP. Good luck, here's hoping you can get a deal that you can live with knowing the dealer will definitely get their profit.
