Trading in my F150, need help.

Mrs. ICS and myself are looking to get a 5th wheel camper. I have always been a proponent of the "If it will pull it, its good to go" motto. However, we are talking about taking trips to Colorado and South Florida, and want the right tool for the job.
I found a 2010 F250 6.4 in Dallas that I want. However, their trade in market is completely different from the trade in market in Baton Rouge. They are offering close to 4-5K less than any dealer in BR has offered me (several quotes from several dealers). Also, their truck is comparably priced to the F250s here but the one I want has under 30k miles and is a KR (hopefully the abbreviation wont be a bat signal for him).
Long story short, here's my question. I know dealers trade new vehicles all the time. Will Robinson Brothers get that F250 for me and let me do my trade down here?
This allows me to get the truck I want, get the trade value that I want, and not have to drive to Dallas.
Thanks for any and all help. We can discuss the merits of the 5.9 vs 6.0 vs 6.4 vs 6.6 vs 6.7 vs 7.3 after I figure this out.

Is the one in Dallas at a ford dealer?
Eta: I bought my last truck in Dallas, flew there and drove back all in the same day. Then instead of trading in I sold it outright
Eata: and don't buy the 6.4 if you can avoid it

ICS, I am late to the party, but:
If you are borrowing, check the interest rates on new vs. used.
It may be you can afford new.
If there is any way you can swing the 6.7, this is the way to go, bar none.
If you must get the 6.4, buy an extended warranty, if you can get one. (Which I doubt, and that should tell you all you need to know)
Only buy the warranty from Ford.
Last, Duramax is better than any 6.4.
Good luck.
