The 2nd one says 2018 with a higher msrp but in the info it says 2017 and front end looks different than the other 2018's.

Your expecting to find on-line pricing that is at 30 - 35 percent off MSRP?

I would not buy a floor plan like either of those if you plan on watching television comfortably.
The TV is mounted at a right angle from the seating.


it does look like the couch would be semi unusable if the tV was swung out so recliners would get a good view. no issue if only two watching, inconvenient if you had company watching a game, etc.

2nd one is sweet. find the cheapest price on the internet an go lower than that. otherwise start at 35% and see where you land but wouldn't go below 30%. Also don't buy any of the extras.

I will 2nd what midnightsadie said....go with the one that your wife likes. It will make life much calmer for you. I always get on rvtrader.com and check the prices that are listed. If it's MSRP, start at least 35% off. You can always go up, but it's hard to come down. I would verify if it is a 2017 and that one, I would start about 45% off of MSRP. Again, you can go up, but hard to come down.

I do get what Downtheroad and Bumpy were saying about the floorplan. It is always good to be able to get to the refrigerator and the bathroom without having to extend the slides when you are traveling. He also mentioned that it was a small shower (28") and if you are of any size, it will be hard to utilize it. My husband is a big man and our new RV has a large shower - larger than ours at home. He still doesn't use it unless there are no facilities at the campground. I don't understand it, but that's fine with me and our daughters.

Anyway, that's MY opinion.

choose the one that you can get to the potty with the slide in. and the one your wife likes.30% sounds like a starting point ,remember the bottom line should include all fees and the tax to. no hidden fees.

Always go 30% below MSRP. If they say no then walk. You can find them elsewhere for 30% off.

BTW. I like the trailers. Stuff can move and trailers were meant to be used with the slides out not in! If you can get them down then go for it!
