How do you know what the msrp really is. I looked at a
Alpine front living room on several different dealers sites and their msrp was from 73,000 to 90,000 for the same package. How do you know what the price really is?

Exactly. Dealers set whatever MSRP that they want to. 20% off or 40% off can net the same price depending on where the dealers set the MSRP.

When you're ready to order you new camper, obtain a manufacturer's build sheet directly from the manufacturer for the model you intend to order. Call the manufacturer and they will fax or mail you a manufacturers build order sheet. The manufacturers build sheet will list the actual manufacturer's msrp for the unit along with the msrp of each individual option ordered. Check off each option you want, add the base msrp, total it, deduct 40% and that's the offer you make the dealer. If one dealer who sells the unit you want to purchase doesn't take your offer, eventually someone else will. Never use a dealer's made up build sheet. No one does that unless you're just dying to pay more for something than it's worth. Obtain your build sheet directly from your manufacturer, find a dealer willing to take your order, place a $500 deposit (not a penny more) on a credit card and have the dealer order that sucker. Then wait for delivery day.
Happy camping!!! See y'alldown the road!!!

Is the MSRP set by the dealer or the factory. My Forest River was set by the factory. The dealer had no involvement.

You don't from a dealer. When you're ready to buy, obtain a manufacturer's build order sheet directly from the manufacturer. Check off the options you want, add the base msrp, deduct 40%, that's your offer to the dealer to order the exact unit you want. Let some other sucker pay dealers retail msrp.
