With Grand Design it's harder to get discounts because they don't allow dealers to show big discounts on the net. So you have no way of competing with any other dealer.
All 3 don't let discount dealers sell their trailers either.
With that being said I would expect 25% off from those 3. 30%+ from any other mfg

That is what I found.
I finalized a deal on a Grand Design 2800BH. Dealer's MSRP quotes for units with the exact same options varied from a high of $39,553 to a low of $34,490.
There are only 4 dealers within 400 miles of our home here in Florida. It's not like negotiation a car deal with 25 Ford dealers within 50 miles and they all have the same exact inventory in stock.
The closest dealer, Lazydays.com, lowest quote was $30,061 with their quoted MSRP of $36,710.
The final negotiated price was from the 2nd closest dealer for $26,192. That was 30.2% below THEIR quoted MSRP of $36,400.
GeneralRV was said they might match but it was a 4 hour drive one way. They have a dealership only about 65 miles from our home but they can't sell or deliver Grand Designs from that location because GD only allows one dealer in a geographical location.
