Welcome, This is the best site..... I have learned so much here - If I wrote a book it would be longer that War and Peace. The forum rocks.

Let us know if you have any question. Are you purchasing new? If so make sure you get them down on the price.... Shoot for 40% off of list (Sticker price) but dont settle for less than 30% off. If you deside to go with the extended warrentee call Good Sams first (much cheaper) then tell the dealear $1000 below that price and see if they bite otherwise dont purchase one (IMO).

This has got to be an exciting time for you...
Congratulations on this new adventure: how will you be using your RV?
Will you be a Full-Timer; or a Weekend Warrior?

Hello, first thing to learn is don't buy a Thor. Look at the Winnebagoes and Fleetwoods. Second thing, stay away from Camping World, including Good Sams anything. They are the same company and crooked as a hounds back leg.

On the extended warranty. I purchased a 2016 Axis 3 months ago. I was quoted a huge price for a warranty. After saying no about 5 times the finance guy had reduced the price for the same warrantee down by about 75%.

I had purchased the rv I was trading in about 30 days before hand (didn't like it after a 13 day trip). Also didn't like the deal they were gonna give me with the trade in. So we walked out with the original unit. They called and texted 5 times in the next 3 hours. The first was on our way home with a reduced offer. We still said no. The next morning I received a text with a full offer sheet that was exactly wanted I had asked for the day before and they had refused.

Stick to your guns on warranty and price. They'll make you a great deal. I bought from a dealer that sells over 300 units each month.

I agree... It actually comes down to the Pre-Delivery Inspection.
Just make sure that they prove to you that EVERY systems works as it should, and any cosmetic issues are pointed out to them, photographed, and double-checked the next time that you see the RV.

We were pretty laid back during our PDI, and it cost us!
