From my experience it's never better to buy from the factory. They cannot undercut their dealers.
The only factories that sell direct are those that have no dealer network.
If a given manufacturer has a dealer network, you can't "buy it" from the factory.
Local pickup at the factory might be an option, so long as the "sale" goes through a dealer. But, that might not even be a possibility.
Factories general aren't equipped with the manpower to deal with end-user customers, aside from maybe giving factory tours.
Example of one factory that DOES sell dealer direct, and has no delaer network, is Casita Travel Trailers, in Texas.
