I don't think there are any discounts right now as the supply is very short, some are still waiting a year or more for one. I think if you wait till summer is over we might see some price reductions but right now there aren't enough to go around. If a dealer offers you a discount it is likely preceded by a huge increase so you're not really getting a discount, they are just giving you back some of the money they over-inflated the price to in the first place.

Our MSRP was in the mid to high 130K range and otd ended up being about $112k after all the stupid markups/taxes etc.
Keep in mind the MSRP numbers seem to be inflated over even last years pricing so all relative. Probably paid too much but timing of all of this worked out for us and usually negotiate more but there were so few available with the options we wanted when we found this one. We purchased a new 2022 and 2023's are now available for sale. Most manufacturers are getting away from an Onan generator and going strictly "underhood generator" which is just a fancy word for second alternator so make sure you understand that before you purchase. Many people have reported problems with the "underhood generator" models especially if you get the smaller lithium batteries. Two 100a/h lithium batteries is really not enough power to run an A/C even though it will do it for a short time using the 3000 watt inverters many of the new ones have. Sorry for the "rant" but if seriously looking at these better to understand all of that before going to the dealer who is likely not going to have a "clue" about these and actually gave "wrong" information. At least that was our experience. Hope that helps and good luck!

When I was shopping, 0 was the discount. Small RV's are in high demand & sellers know it.

In today's market, and depending on your dealer, I think you're just going to have to start with a discount number and keep lowering it until the dealer stops shaking their head and says yes.

You might well be at or close to MSRP and then have to decide if you're comfortable with the deal.

I just got 0% discount on a ‘22 Airstream Interstate, but was able to get freight and dealer documentation fees removed.

Just bought a new coachmen Nova Li3 and got 26%of msrp only after a big fight. I just saw 29% off though in Louisiana.

I'm think they are going to be starting big discounts. They are starting to get plenty of inventory. Parking lots are getting full in Elkhart and sales are falling into the toilet.

What are you seeing in those parking lots? All I'm seeing are travel trailers. No class A, B, or C. Industry reporting is that TT sales are down significantly but class B sales are still rising.
