Some are delusional. I don't think they understand that there are many more CW dealerships. CW is the only national chain of RV dealerships. They sell more RV's than anyone. Because of their buying power, they are very competitive.
Each CW dealership needs to be taken on their own merit.
I would not make a blanket statement to never buy from CW. I would do my homework on the rig including price comparisons. I would negotiate in good faith and evaluate the CW dealership I'm buying from, just as I would a non CW dealership. I would also do a very thorough PDI before pulling off the lot.
Warranty work is a **** shoot at all dealerships. CW and non CW dealerships are both subject to the slow, cumbersome approval process set up by the RV manufacturers.
I have purchased 2 new RV's one out of state and one special ordered locally.
Neither one ever required warranty service.
Explore the deal at CW. If the vibe is bad and the sales pressure to high walk away. But if its the unit you want cut to the chase and make them any offer with your final out the door price. Your in control of the deal not the salesman. If they accept make sure the deal includes passing a stringent PDI.
If they do not accept your offer, take bids from your local dealers. Let them no you are a serious customer ready to place an order and get their best price.
Remain in control of the situation. If the aggressive salesman wants to harass you for a deposit. Call his bluff and make him meet your price.
If he can meet all your criteria, seal the deal if he can't let him know why and move on.
