At some point the dealers will need to sell the old units and take a loss.
Every Weekend Warrior sitting on the lot might cost them $200-$300 per month. At the end of a year they have lost $2,000-$3,000 and the coach is another year older.
Unless someone buys Weekend Warrior and honors warranty on all the existing coaches then these are basically USED RVs. Any dealer holding out for 20% off Retail is SOL.

Mostly agree but discounts deeper than around 35% probably won't happen at a financial strong dealer =they will ride it out until an uninformed buyer pays their price. The RV sales biz is totally geared to impulse buyers not really knowing the value of the product.
A sharp buyer will get a good deal but it may not all be a direct discount from list price....
Was just checking Craigs List Inland Empire and man there seems to be a lot of used toy haulers for sale from private owners. A lot of WW as well. A lot of them are newer models to.
