Just a thought on either used or new purchase from Camping World. While many on this Forum and elsewhere have documented some problems with Camping World we have had good experience so far with CW. (We have no relationship with CW other than purchase)
Having said that; there be a purchase leverage opportunity in the short term with CW. It’s our understanding that currently all CW locations are being encouraged to reduce inventory. This is driven by the CW corporate goal of positioning CW for an IPO later this year.
So it you are buying new according to your exact specifications to Thor this is very attractive to CW since they can pass on a unit without increasing their inventory and the purchase does not count on their Thor unit allocation. Alternatively, if you find a unit on their lot which fits your needs, you may be able to negotiate quite aggressively knowing they are motivated to reduce inventory in the short term.
(About 6 weeks ago we actually used a sealed bidding process and communication to select our supply dealer from 7 contacted and we considered delivery, warranty work and service work. We were able to purchase new at 34% off MSRP)
I hope this is useful.
Best Regards, James
