That's about the best I could find also. I think I was quoted about $1200 from the local RV dealer, then I had to pay for the shipping to the dealer and sales tax (7.75%). Where did you find it at that price?

I've seen them for about $1000 dollars around here, but they are made here in Utah, (Salt Lake City) so the difference is probably the savings on the shipping.

Where?? I deliver to a dealer in Draper once and a while, and if I can save $399 I will wait until I go there.

Try Carter Distributing or A-1 Distributing. They are in Salt Lake. Get in the door with a distributor, the rv shops mark them up a bunch. Let me know if you need a phone number for them and I will look them up.

I tried a distributor and they told me to get lost.
