Illinois & Chicago RV Buyers: Motorhomes for Sale | MHSRV
From Chicago down to Cairo, Illinois sits a long way from any Motor Home Specialist lot, so buyers here shop online first and travel for the deal.
The flagship, with the widest motorhome selection, is in Alvarado, Texas. Montgomery, Alabama is the second store and the shorter run for anyone downstate. We are the number-one volume-selling motor home dealer in the world, and it is the pricing that closes the distance.
Price does most of the work. Every coach shows a real discounted number online, set well under MSRP, with no prep or freight tacked on at signing. The floor staff is salaried rather than commissioned, and the company is still family owned.
How you travel depends on where you start. Out of Chicago, most buyers fly into DFW and get collected for the last leg to the flagship, which beats two long days in the driver's seat. Downstate can lean toward Montgomery, the closer of the two stores. The Texas lot keeps a free onsite RV park, so there is a place to rest before the trip home.
Because of the distance, the shopping starts on the website. Each unit carries real photos of that exact coach, video and virtual tours on many of them, and a listed sale price, so the RV is settled before a flight is ever booked.
Motorhomes are the center of it. There are Class A coaches and diesel pushers, Class C and B+, and Super C models, in new and used from the major builders. If you pull a trailer instead, there are travel trailers, fifth wheels, and toy haulers as well, and the used rows turn over as trades come in.
Handle the numbers from home before you go. Start a financing request and send your trade-in details for a figure online, and there is little left to do but drive back.
Once you are home, Illinois gives a rig plenty to do. Starved Rock pulls crowds to the sandstone canyons above the Illinois River, Shawnee National Forest and the Garden of the Gods anchor the far south, Chain O'Lakes sits in the lake country north of Chicago, and Illinois Beach runs right along Lake Michigan. Our Illinois RV parks page rounds out the list, and you can read reviews from Illinois owners before you commit.

Illinois RV Buyer FAQ
Is Motor Home Specialist an Illinois RV dealer?
No. It sells from Texas and from a second store in Montgomery, Alabama. Illinois buyers are shopping out of state, which is normal once the search moves past the local lots.
Where can I find motorhomes for sale near Illinois?
The deepest lineup is at the Alvarado, Texas flagship, listed in full online. Downstate Illinois buyers can reach the Montgomery, Alabama store with a shorter drive.
How do Chicago buyers usually get there?
Most fly out of O'Hare or Midway into DFW and get picked up for the short hop to the flagship. It saves the two-day drive down from northern Illinois.
What types of motorhomes does Motor Home Specialist sell?
The motorized side covers Class A, diesel pushers, Class C and B+, and Super C, and there are towables such as travel trailers and fifth wheels for anyone who pulls instead of drives.
Does MHSRV carry used motorhomes?
Yes. A large used selection sits alongside the new coaches at both stores, all priced below MSRP, and it changes as trade-ins arrive.
Why buy out of state instead of near Chicago?
The selection runs deeper than any single Illinois lot, and the up-front pricing usually more than makes up for the cost of the flight or the drive.
Do I have to pick up the motorhome in person?
Yes. There is no delivery, so you come to the store, walk the coach, run through the orientation, and drive it home yourself.
Where can I camp with an RV in Illinois?
Starved Rock, Shawnee National Forest, Chain O'Lakes up in the lake country, and Illinois Beach on Lake Michigan are all favorites with Illinois RVers.
Motor Home Specialist does not deliver. All purchases are picked up in person at the dealership. Please confirm current inventory, pricing, titling, and registration details with your home state authority before traveling.
