Florida Dealers

I am currently looking and in the process of obtaining quotes on a new Sport 16 . The dealers closest to me are JD Sanders or Bates RV, with Sanders being the closest.
Wondering if anyone has insight or experience with either of these dealers. (PM is fine as well).

Thanks in advance - I have been lurking here for a while and amazed at the experience and knowledge available here. Hoping to soon be a happy owner!

I use JD Sanders to locate and purchase AS specific parts. They have always been very helpful in this aspect of AS ownership.

I will be going by there next month for some maintenance assistance on axels and the entrance door.

Greetings from the Florida Panhandle

First off, welcome to the Forums. We're glad to have you with us.

We purchased our 2005 Safari 25FB new from JD Sanders in Alachua in June of 2006. The first generation of the FB's did not sell well, and many dealers had left over 2005 FB's. We got a price from about 10 different dealers east of the Mississippi. JD Sanders offered the best price by several thousand dollars. A bonus for us was that Sanders was our closest Airstream dealer. Alachua is about 300 from Santa Rosa Beach in the Panhandle.

We were happy with the deal and the warranty work that Sanders performed.

Thank you! I've asked for pricing from 4 and hope I have the same experience. I did my physical looking at Sanders, they would definitely be my closest (90 miles) for service. Appreciate the welcome as well.
