slackercruster Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 They have been there for 75 years. They said RV's have exploded in price and they are having a hard time still getting RV's. Are any local RV dealers closing down in your local? Do you think this dealer's reason is legit or just an excuse for something else?

Ray,IN Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 (edited) That would be quite similar to Newmar selling out to Winnebago and Tiffin selling out to, well you get the drift. Bottom line, the owners think it is a wise business decision, and their business to do with as they choose.

He only dealt with trailers, no motorized RV's. At 70, he wanted to retire and couldn't find a buyer for the business, so he deeply discounted the remaining stock and shut it down. The property is still for sale I believe. I picked up some odds and ends of spare parts during the sale, most at 50% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobsallyh Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 Haven't been any close here in the Yuma, AZ. In fact we got a new one out of the Casa Grande area last winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandsys Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 The one where we bought our first Class B has closed. I suspect the owner wanted to retire when the pandemic hit but that is pure guess. Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray,IN Posted March 14 Report Share Posted March 14 OTOH, within the past year 2 new RV sales stores have opened about 50 miles from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
