First Post - Walked out on slimy dealer
Well, we finally selected a Snow River 245RKS, based on many hours of lurking here (tons of good info, obviously), obsessively scouring the Northwood website, and finally visiting a dealer. That part ...

I've found that when you go to a dealer with all your ducks in a row, knowing exactly what the sales price is, makes a huge difference. I know many can't do this, but on my last purchase we paid cash, which also makes a big difference (and time savings).
Another critical thing is to stay calm. If a salesperson senses you are emotional, they will use that to their advantage.
Whether it be RVs or cars, I work with the salesperson to make it a win win situation, but being very firm about your thresholds.
If you go in with the attitude that you are going to take them to the cleaners, it will rarely end well.
That being said, if a dealer changes the terms of a deal or renigs in an agreement, run away as fast as possible.
BTW - I can't stop laughing at The Man With a Blue Pen. :)
