Wanting to Purchase a 2018 31RL

[STRETCH]

Hello all,

First post on this forum, I have been a camper owner for the last 6 years. Just sold my last rig in March 2018. Now I am contemplating the purchase of a 2018 or 2019 Whitehawk 31RL. I found one local in Albuquerque NM at camping world the dealer is asking right at 37K for the unit. I actually found one on RVdirect website, I built it with everything the Camping world one has plus the extra bedroom AC unit. They are asking just under 31K for their unit, but I have to drive 1,000 miles one way to get it. Any thoughts on this and has anyone had any experience with camping world matching or working with someone on prices.

Thank you,

You should be able to get a deep discount off the sticker price on a new one. I would not even talk with a dealer that stuck to the sticker price.

Go on the Jayco website. Build your unit, the MSRP will be listed, take a minimum of 30% off of that MSRP, add destination charge (i'm guessing in the 1,100 range) and that should give you a good idea of what you should pay. ( don't let dealer add any other costs)
Some may say start at 33% and you'll be able to come down to 30%.
If they don't want to sell it at 30% off, then politely say thank you and walk out and head to another dealer. Print out the MSRP from the website, printout other dealers prices(even if not the same unit) to show 30%+ discounts. Carry this information with you to the dealer. I had all my info in a simple manilla folder and when the dealer saw that I did some internet research his very first quote was 29.8% off list.
Good luck shopping.
By the way, that 31RL is a very nice unit!
