In our 3+ years of RV shopping, we have seen everything from a sales person who spent an entire day showing us everything in the Newmar line (and knowing we wouldn't be purchasing soon) to dealers who leave everything unlocked to dealers who schedule a sales person to take you to the units they feel meet your requirements. We have even been given a pager and told the next available sales person would page us (and waited over 2 hours, after driving 2 hours to look) and immediately lost any potential sale.

In the end, it came down to getting to know the sales person and the dealership as well as talking to many, many people who went through the process of buying their motorhomes like we were and listening and learning from all of the resources available.

I agree that there are many more resources available today but the best path is still to go through RV shows and go to as many dealers as it takes to get fully ready for the whole process of selecting a model, choosing a dealer, making a deal and then getting the financing or closing the deal in the way that makes you happy.
