Does anyone know what dealer markup is like on new Roadtreks? I am used to understanding what the dealer paid and what additional charges might be added to a vehicle invoice but I can't seem to find that information for RVs.

You can't find it because it's a closer guarded secret than information on U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile.

The less you know about dealer markups, the more power the dealer has to set the price.

someone previously posted this and I will see if I can locate his post. IIRC it was fairly high like 38% or so.

That is funny. Yeah, that is how they make their money, doesn't surprise me they don't want it known. I just figured there would be info from Edmunds, or Consumer Reports or someone like there is for autos.

That is much higher than I would have thought. That leaves a lot of bargaining room!

The MSRT on my new '07 RT Agile was $86,258. I paid $73,885 after lots of looking and pricing. Don't know if this helps, since this was last season's model, etc.
