Why don't dealers want to order for customer request??

Contact Nexus RV they will build it the way you want! No middle men dealers to hassle with, you deal directly with the factory owners.

Trackrig offers some good suggestions.

There must be a valid reason, as during the 60's, it was very easy to order a car with just the features you wanted.

Try that today. Most car dealers will laugh at you, before they tell you "No way, no how,ain't going to happen." .

Greetings!

At this time of the year, manufacturers would prefer that their
dealer's sell what's on the lot. Buying a new car in August is
the same deal. Manufacturers have probably stopped building "2014"
and making 2015's that have a standard floor plan that they know
will appeal to the average buyer. If you want something that might
be considered out of the ordinary, talk to them during the Winter.

Probably for several reasons:
1. They spend a lot of time chasing these requests for people just kicking tires.
2. People changing their orders due to what different options cost - more time spent communicating with the factory.
3. People who do order getting upset with late deliveries either due to factory problems or trying to get the RV delivered to the final location.
4. The ordered unit arrives with something not ordered, the wrong color on something, or without some option requested - a lot more time spent trying to correct it with the factory.
5. People wanting to know if the factory will do something custom for them - a lot more time spent talking to the factory.
6. And the retail store may discourage a salesman from trying to order something because the customer invariably calls in with questions when the salesman is off or on vacation and no one else knows what's going on because the salesman has been handling everything - then the customer is upset because they can't get answers.
7. If you don't take the special order after its been made, how likely are they to sell it the way you ordered it? They may have to discount it and loose money on it?
8. And there's probably other reasons.

These are the same reasons why a lot of house builders quit building spec houses - it's too much hassle dealing with the customers. It's easier to just build a house and put it on the market when it's finished.
