I hope you don't get burned. The local dealer has a store...inventory....property taxes....employees....insurance....floorplan interest...etc none of which RV Direct or RV Wholesalers has. You buy it its delivered direct to you and you are on your own. You may get service but at the end of the line since the dealer is going to service his customers...that supported him...first. That is a good businessman. FWIW...wife and I just priced a new rig and RV Direct was 900 bucks cheaper then local dealer....not worth NOT supporting the local dealers business and family.
Obviously, you know nothing about RVW or RVDirect.
both have brick and mortar dealerships, with service bays, employees, taxes, property, inventory, insurance, store, foorplan interest.
So don't bash them when you have no idea how they operate.
As was said, they are both traditional RV dealers who have a Internet based business model that is very successful and they aren't the only ones, just the best known.
We almost bought from RVW but found a better price at a slightly closer but smaller RV dealership that also has a strong Internet business model.
Just not as big as the other two.
