today i rounded-up my 15 year old son and my wife and we when to the local new motorhome stealership.....
this sucker(5 slide-outs!!!!) is really nice.....our stealership salesman said he could get me real good deal on it @220K.
i found the same model number, same color scheme, same equipment package on the internet for 160K.
i might make an offer on the 160K home....
this is only a 40 foot home thus no tag axle....the biggest bus conversions are 45 feet with a tag alxe and at lest 500hp cats....

Buying Your First RV
Veteran RV sales manager offers insider tips to save big on an RV
Everyone about to buy an RV should read this book!
"If a buyer knows exactly how a dealer makes his money, then he will know how much to offer, and what pitfalls to avoid," writes the author.
Available as a printed book or instantly as a PDF eBook.
By Chuck Woodbury, editor
RVing is fun. Buying an RV is not. Veteran RV salesman and now sales manager Bob Randall knows this. Healso knows that a lot of buyers pay way too much for what they could have purchased for a whole lot less.
And so he has written a book: "The RV Buyers Survival Guide: How To Survive and Profit Through the Buying Experience." In it, he reveals what you will not find in any other RV advice book that I know of, and that is: how does a dealer make his profit? How much does he mark up each RV? What reasonable offer will he not refuse?
"The trouble is — and I've seen this hundreds of times — a couple decide they want a trailer or motorhome," Randall explains. "They envision themselves out on the road, camping in a beautiful campground, sitting by the campfire, enjoying the freedom of RVing. But what happens is they get so consumed with this wonderful dream that they just don't take the time to prepare themselves for making an intelligent purchase."
And that, says Randall, can spell disaster. Not only will this dreamy-eyed couple likely pay too much for the vehicle, but in doing so, they may set themselves up for big trouble down the road when it comes time to trade it in. "In the business, we say that customers like this are 'buried,'" he explains. "They owe more on their RV than what it's worth."
Randall explains the simple way to avoid this all-too-common trap.
But the most important thing he reveals is how dealers make their profit , both on the "front end" — which is what they make on the actual sale — and the "back end," where they can earn even more money through financing, insurance and other add ons.
"If a buyer knows exactly how a dealer makes his money, then he will know how much to offer, and what pitfalls to avoid," he says.
In this concise, but important book, Randall outlines the specific ways a dealer earns his profit. He furnishes exact percentages. He shows how much leeway a dealer has to work with on different types of RVs, from folding camping trailers to high-end diesel motor coaches. He explains why a first-time buyer can have an advantage buying one with a trade in. And he offers advice to those buyers WITH a trade in. Is it better to sell their old rig themselves or use it as a trade? It's not as simple a choice as it may seem, and Randall explains why. Buying Your First RV?
