    24 flagstaff on Dealer lot (used) they say once...

    Comparing exact models, how would I compare a 24 on the lot vs a used 24 on their lot? They said it is perfect and only used once and the buyer realized they needed a bigger unit. Is this considered new? I will be checking if the warranty is still good.

    Interesting video. Basically, if you buy a new RV from a dealer, you are on your own. The RV you bought, and any issues that might have come with it, are yours. The dealer is not even responsible or obligated to repair warranty issues if they dont want to. Here is the video...

    Locating dealer inventory?

    Is there a way to find out what dealers have inventory (or planned to arrive orders) of a particular model, in this case a DX3 32KD? Only a few dealers seem to post in RV Trader.

    Service without a local dealer?

    For those who do not live close to a dealership, how do you get service or maintenance completed if required? Does it just become a DIY project? We are shopping Dynaquest and the availability of a local dealer to us (Cheyenne, WY) is a concern.
