Well......I have to eat a little crow here. I ended up getting a brand new 17' in Kentucky for $4K cheaper than the best deal any ATL area dealer had to offer (pending they had what I wanted).
Thanks for the recommendation about sourcing out of state. Seems the industry has changed quite a bit since I was in in about 10 years ago.
Anyways, here is a poor pic of the truck I got:

I'll be in Kentucky tomorrow. Want a ride?
