Go where you feel comfortable and buy what suits your needs. I was in the market for a small 5th wheel. Pik A Dilly had only one style and it wasn't what I liked. 4 seasons didn't seem to be interested in dealing with me too much. I did lots of google searches and youtube videos as many us dealers will have 360 views of inside trailers. We were on a road trip to Alberta and on youtube I found a double slide trailer we loved. It was just north of Saskatoon so on the way. Looked at it on the way there, hit up a couple more places and ended up buying on our way back. People ask why I would buy a trailer 6 hours away. Ummmmm.....I am buying a portable home for myself, not service. Everyone tried to sell me on their service ability. Well if I need service that much am I buying junk? So far a broken cog on a slideout due to not level - totally my fault. 6 hour drive to dealer and fixed. Anything minor was shipped to me and I replaced. Very simple stuff. Also trailers are all made by a few companies so just because I bought out of town doesn't mean they cannot be fixed locally. I know the local dealers can be that type that will push me aside to fix all their stuff and make me wait regardless.
