Introducing CW Direct

Through strategic partnerships with industry-leading RV manufacturers, the launch of CW Direct brings RV buyers a streamlined path to get new models directly from factory production lines without added fees and shipping costs.  When you know the RV you want, skip the markups and use CW Direct to expedite your buying journey.

Let’s learn more about this exciting new offering.

What Is CW Direct?

With an initial location in Middlebury, Indiana – and the potential to expand to other locations – CW Direct sources RVs fresh from manufacturing lines in Northeast Indiana and prepares them for customer pickup in a centralized location. 

If you’ve ever been curious about how RVs are priced at dealerships, know that many price fluctuations and differences can be partly attributed to fees the dealership faces that must be factored into the selling price for them to remain profitable, including freight charges. CW Direct bypasses freight and processing fees by making units available directly to you, with online or in-person shopping options. The only caveat? Customers will need to coordinate how they will physically acquire the vehicle: pickup or delivery.

While the current model most appeals to those within convenient driving distance, CW Direct can help you coordinate delivery at competitive prices.  

What To Expect

While new RVs purchased at CW Direct don’t include dealer markups or extra shipping fees, you can expect a somewhat different buying experience. These “no frills” models may not include certain items you might expect from a dealership, such as propane, batteries, or certain hitch-and-tow components. If you have questions or concerns about pickup or delivery, you may reach out to the dealership for more information.

So what kind of inventory can you expect? 

CW Direct currently features private label inventory, including Coleman Lantern, Eddie Bauer, Mallard, Silver Lake LE towables, and Thor Freedom Elite motorhomes. See the full inventory of CW Direct RVs, which currently lists available travel trailers, fifth wheels, and motorhomes. 

While walk-ins are welcome at the Middlebury location, we encourage you to shop online using virtual walkthroughs, 360-degree interior and exterior views, images, descriptions, and more.

Is RV Financing Available? 

With CW Direct, your RV purchasing options are similar to what you’d expect at a dealership, including financing. Just like at a Camping World dealership, customers looking to secure financing will have access to a network of over 300 lenders to ensure you get the best available rates and terms. 

Does CW Direct Accept Trade-Ins?

CW Direct does accept trade-ins. If you currently own an RV, you may trade in your current RV to offset the price of your new model. You will be prompted to include your trade-in when going through the CW Direct purchasing process online for your new RV. If you choose to do so, you will need to provide relevant information about your RV, including its condition and age. Afterward, you will receive a real offer pending inspection of your RV to confirm its condition. If you still owe on your RV, you may still complete a trade-in.
