I have said this many times before: Dealer cost is right about 50% of retail.
You should expect a 30% or more discount on retail to "get a good deal."

I also said that the trade has to be EXcluded. You can get a good deal on the camper or a good deal on the trade; BUT NEVER both. If it looks like you are getting both, you are getting hosed on the financing.

Herk7769, I totally believe that and have heard it before. I've seen friends at RV shows buying new units being offered average trade prices and average street prices on new unit at one dealer. The next guy will offer 10k more for the trade but slap the 10k on the price of the new one. I think you can get a fair price on both, yes, but no one is giving them away. Shopping around a little does pay sometimes. Did for us and had to go a distance to get what we wanted anyway.
