Kirk W Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 The following information comes from Go RVing website: Quote Shipments for 2020 finished at 430,412 units, surpassing 2019 by 6%, despite a nearly two-month RV industry shutdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The latest projection shows total 2021 RV shipments ranging between 523,139 and 543,572 units with the most likely year-end total being 533,356 units. That total would represent a 23.9% increase over the 2020 year-end total of 430,412 units. It would also be a 5.7% gain over the current comparable record high of 504,600 units in 2017. There is a lot more interesting data on the link. Quote Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

Ray,IN Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 This year Winnebago and Newmar have a 2 yr backlog of orders_already. The latest reason reducing RV production is the storms in the South destroyed foam production to make seats and mattress'.

bruce t Posted March 27, 2021 Report Share Posted March 27, 2021 Covid has stopped a lot of folks going overseas for holidays. So they are buying an RV and seeing their homeland. Demand is up. Here in Australia demand is crazy. Used prices crazy. Campgrounds hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
