There is a long, essentially accurate line of complaints posted by members who have purchased their Keystone RV product away from there local area and subsequently having significant issues trying to find someone to service it, manage any warranty issues and support them with anything they may need from the dealer network.

Saving $3 or 4 thousand dollars may seem like a "good deal", but when you factor in the travel costs from PA to IN, you may well find that your local dealership can not only come close to the total cost, but also opens a relationship with a local service center.

Remember that Springdale is an "entry level" RV and since it costs much less than some of the more expensive models, there is less profit in the purchase. (25% of 20K is much less than 25% of 40K sales price).

The "price of the coach" is important, but shouldn't be your only consideration when looking for and negotiating your new RV.

If you are considering RV Direct/RV Wholesalers, ask them for the address and phone number of their "local service center" that's near you and call that dealer, ask them what services they provide to RV Direct/RV Wholesalers' customers. Don't always believe everything you see in an advertisement !!!

Good Luck.
