I'm another believer in December,January when the sales are absolutely dead.
You must have done your homework prior to this point. It will not be a good time to start or browse. You will need to be ready to walk in and close the deal on the unit you want. I factory ordered my unit and got a very competitive no nonsense price.
No matter what most RV dealerships in off season locations are losing money in the winter months. They are willing to accept a mediocre low margin/profit deal just for the cash flow. There is very little traffic during these months you will have the dealers full attention.
But I must emphasize you must be ready to place your order or buy off the lot. The question and answer period should be over at this point. The dealer needs to know you are a no nonsense ready to buy customer.
