Went to RV show yesterday. Always interesting to watch people and see latest is on the market. Main focus, like always seems to be price. Lots of pricing was "how much a month" and lots curtained off "closing room" cubicles to get up and personal with your finances. Lots of left over 2015 models marked down to make way for 2016's. Couple RV's were good in my opinion but many I'm not sure they would make it pass the amount of time they would be financed for. One OEM (Grand Designs???) had caulking that looked like Dicor and was tinted to match sort of silver metal fake of siding. I never knew you could tint caulking. And of course lots of things not so good, here is prime example. Anybody see anything wrong?

Looks to me like the black pipe will get broken rather quickly??

Giving you a monthly amount is a good way they hid the actual cost of the sale...some people still fall for it.Is that a dump pipe? Why is it sticking out so far?

I've been to a few shows and always come away thinking I'll stay with what I have. By the time I've looked a dozens, they all look alike to me. I wish they would have more gadgets and displays for new ideas etc.

Yeah. Even though I'm sticking with pups, it's interesting, as you say, just to see what the latest in Rv's are. I recall seeing my first RPOD and being very interested in that --- quite an innovation in small, hybrid, trailers. Also fun to see the expensive Class A's even though I have no interest in them for camping.

Big RV show coming up at Fairplex in Pomona CA next week, Oct 10-19.

Investments appreciate. Anything that depreciates is not an investment but an expense.

An RV or Boat is not an example of a good investment.

Always funto see newunits and look for flaws. Am I the only one who believes in saving for, not financing, a new RV? Is there a worse investment on the planet? Maybe a boat.
