So this is the unit I'm looking at

2016 Forest River Forester 2401W Class B Lewisville, TX National Indoor RV Centers

Does everything appear normal here? In the second photo, it almost appears as if the unit is listing backwards over the rear tires.

Since they are 5 hours from me, I decided to negotiate before driving. I have a feeling they can come down on the price, and if not, oh well.

If you're talking about the writing that is a reflection.

no, almost as if the rear shocks are weak, or it's heavy in the back. Could just be a photo angle...

Not much clearance from ground on that vehicle. I suspect there will be a lot of bottom scraping when pulling out of some areas.

Works with car dealers in my area. But the RV dealers act like they could care less.

Very nice rig. Looks like it has the full body paint job which might be the $3-4000 difference between RVW and the dealer if you didnt specify full paint with RVW. I would love to see one up close.

NIRV says they ain't budging. I would prefer to do business with another Texas business. Just close counts.

% off MSRP is a meaningless number since each dealer sets their own MSRP. One may be 33K MSRP and another may be 37K MSRP for an identical unit. Go by actual pricing at different dealers instead to make comparisons.

Like cars/trucks, once it leaves the lot or ages a year, you can expect 35% reduction in price. For vehicles it's the different between New and Used.
I usually buy great shape used and after 2 yrs expect 50% off.
But, sometimes such opportunities are rare.
