Consider checking online for the models you were interested in.
www.rvtrader.com for example.
You will find a wide range of advertised prices, and as you visit dealers websites you will also find that the fees also vary widely.
As you noted, dealers may charge for delivery, as well as fees for,,
Dealer prep as high as $750
Pre delivery walkthrough $450
Documentation fees $399
What was presented as a great deal, gets right back at full MSRP.
Check dealers programs, some offer no fee or no add on pricing, ask any dealer your talking to what their fees are before you ask a units price, so you know where they are going.
The straight up dealers are proud of their structure, most clearly mark it on their website, use that info to make an apples to apples comparasion.
And the general consensus in here seems to be that 25=30% off MSRP is the norm.
Good luck
