NADA/RV is a good reference, but plays heavily on all options, some of which no one cares or every RV practically has anyway, so they're over valued. Then there's RV trader, which is a good starting point, but those are asking prices and do not necessarily reflect actual selling price. The MSRP's are highly inflated and often 30-35% or more over wholesale. Example: Our Montana MSRP was roughly 92K, we bought it wholesale for 54K. Your 2018 depreciated substantially the first year. With all that in mind, start checking around and get your best deal on the specific model of your choice. You'll soon get some numbers of what your Montana is worth. One other point, if the dealership has the model in stock, they'll be more likely to make a deal rather than ordering. Remember, in 2-3 months, the next set of new Montana's will be ready for the public RV shows and no one wants out dated new inventory.
