Question Class A DP Choices

It looks like DW & I are finally going to take the plunge and buy our first DP. Reseach and reports (and all the fine folk on this board) have helped me immensely in narrowing down choices. DW, on the other hand - is incapable of looking at a floor plan and "seeing" a lay-out. So - my question; where would we find the greatest selection of used DPs available to view? I'm not really looking for the "biggest" dealer, more like an area that has lots of dealers, with used DPs for sale. Any suggestions? Geographic location doesn't really matter all that much - probably have to fly there anyway!

My first thought would be PPL Motorhomes in Houston, TX.

Lots of dealers would mean any big city, and probably in the south. Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, etc.

There are two huge dealers on I 35W about 30 miles south of Fort Worth. They are side by side in Alvardo, TX, which would also put you close to the metroplex, many dealers there.

Lazydays in Sefner (Tampa) FL. Several hundred used RVs in stock at any point in time.

RV shows are another good place to experience floor plans. They will be new ones, of course, but most of the floor plans will be the same or nearly so.

If you want to go to the west coast to get it just do a Google search for (pdata RV) I think this dealer by far as the best prices on TVs and a pretty big election. Try it and let me know what you think. JoeJoe

Looked at your profile to see where you lived and never heard of it, really confused or something is messed up somewhere.
