+1 on that advice....

So you're suggesting that the price difference is sufficient to drive 1500+ miles (call it 3 days) to Ohio, and then another 4-5 days towing the R-pod back to So. Cal? That's at least (at least) a week and 3000+ miles. That does not sound practical to me. Of course, that's just my opinion...

Don't think they is suggesting travel to Couch. Using Couch's as a price suggestion. Granted they are a volume dealer and granted the price will be higher in CA. Richard Cindy says try to get close to that price, he didn't say go there and buy it.

I just purchased a 189 for 16k, but I'm driving to Tennessee to pick it up.  I guess it also depends on options you get with it.

Thanks Mike.  That's exactly what I meant.  If you can get within $1000 of Couch you got a great deal.  So you start at a local dealer and move further away trying to reach attain price.  At some point the distance becomes too great and the laws of diminishing returns takes over.
