RV Parts

What is the best source for RV parts? We are in Kalamazoo, MI, and found a furnace at Bontragers Surplus, just South of here. We still need the furnace vent cap for the exterior outlet.

If I'm looking for actual parts in stock before ordering, I prefer https://www.rvupgradestore.com/default.asp . Their prices are competitive compared to the other vendors. Etrailer and good old Amazon is good too.

RV parts are seriously inflated in most instances. As soon as they slap that "RV" moniker on it the price goes up as much as 60%. It pays to shop around and do some comparison shopping between Amazon, Ebay, Walmart, etc.

All good input. It was worth the drive to the surplus store. We bought an unused furnace for $565. Cramping World wants $1,000. They were able to dig up a vent cap for us also.
