I wanted to buy from them, but my friend who is a saleman at Albany RV, had a camper that I fell in love with and a good price. When you see Dave, he will remember me from my Diesel Jeep Liberty.

just curious if you're ending up at the dealer who told you they wouldn't work on it originally?

Looks like RV Wholesalers does a pretty good job at least trying to take care of their customers.

I am fortunate in that I bought from my local dealer, and they have an excellent service department. I've bought three new units from them so far, and will buy my next one there. I didn't realize how blessed we were to have such great dealer service until I read some of the problems with dealers honoring warranties on here. I've never been given any flack at all from my dealer, in fact they have remained cordial a couple of times when I was out of line. I would certainly recommend anyone who lives within reasonable driving distance of Jackson, Tennessee (located on I-40 midway between Nashville and Memphis) to check out Smallwood's. They're a great bunch.

When all was said and done there wasn't a lot of difference for me. Had it been $6K difference, I would have been "on the road" too.
Mine is a similar experience. Could've saved ~$1500 on price but would've lost that to either shipping or driving/hassle costs to purchase out-of-state. Decided to support my local dealer, doesn't hurt that the owner and I are both Shriners at the local temple.

The lowest price isn't always the best price. When we bought our new 320RS we elected to go with the dealer who had a good reputation of taking care of the customer after the sale, understanding that we could have gotten a better deal from some of the "wholesale" dealers. I have come to believe that it is more important to select a dealer who will take care of you than the brand of the RV that you are purchasing. I can understand the dealers unwillingness to do the warranty work.

This practice ily s totally unreasonable, RV's are made to travel in, I purchased my camper from the nearest dealer that had the unit that I was looking for. I did not buy because they were the cheapest. We do plan on traveling extensively throughout the country, so if I have a problem when on the road, which by the way is what campers are designed and sold for, I can not expect to get warranty work done until I happen to get back home? Again, this practice is totally unacceptable.......
