You can of course ask them for anything and everything but the dealers are only going to give you what they wish to give you.
I used the NADA values off the internet as a start point, I also took over a year to decide what I wanted, including a rental for a week or so, to see if I really wanted to pull one of these barns down the road.
I our area there really is no "bad time of the year" the units we looked at in the spring breezes and summer heat were the same price in the February snows.
We were down to three used units in at two different dealers and finally went with the floor plan we liked best. Floor plan lasts when all else is forgotten.
Currently large dealerships are in a good position. Last year the RV industry sold over 400,000 TTs and 5vers, this year they are a pace to sell 460,000 units. There probably is not as much incentive to deal. That does not mean you should not ask for one. My price included a hitch and new battery but most important I got the TT my DW wanted at a price a could afford.
Good luck
