I realize I should have indicated our budget which is we want to stay under 100K, preferably in the 75 to 85K range, but for the right one we will consider going to 100K. .......
If there are particular floor plans you are interested in, google that floor plan and rvtrader and look at new units (or used if you are interested in buying used). Rvtrader.com will post models at various dealers all across the US for sale and the listed prices. You will find quite a variance in the listed prices. I have been looking at new Montanas. A new Montana that MSRP of $90K or more will be offered by dealers any where from near that $90K to as low as the $60K range or less. And the low end is what you should expect to pay for that new Montana. Using that info, you can bargain with your local dealer. I would guess the other models you are looking at would have similar price variations. Lots of research puts you in a better bargaining position. That would give you extra money to add things like better tires, washer/dryer, residential fridge (all options on Montana), and other upgrades.
Also by just googling the model number (without rvtrader in the search box), you will get lots of hits from additional various dealer web sites where you can look at pictures of their units and their listed prices.
