MSRP question....
OK....I think it's a pretty well know fact that MSRP's for RV's are pretty much up to the dealer to dream up.....correct me if I'm wrong here. Question is, when looking to buy a trailer do you use ...

Like someone else mentioned, get online and find your model at as many dealers as possible and get an idea of what the MSRP really is. I just purchased a couple weeks ago and when I mentioned that I knew the dealers set the MSRP the salesman freaked out saying there was no way. So, do they? Who knows but nothing would surprise me.
Once you get a good average for MSRP you should be able to pay somewhere between 60-80% of that. The wide range depends on brand/manufacturer, model year and location. Remember there is a lot of shipping charges for trailers. Especially further away you are from where they are made (usually the mid-west but not always).
For reference I just paid 31K on a 5th wheel with an MSRP of 47K. I was super happy... dealer was desperate with it being the end of a winter month and wanting to move something.
