How much off MSRP now?

How much off the MSRP of a new RV would you expect to get now that we're enduring this pandemic and economic shutdown. We all know to try to get 25%-30% off MSRP in normal times but considering the 2020 models are plentiful on dealers lots, should we try to get more off? I would think that when manufacturers begin production again they will be putting out 2021 models, not more 2020 models. Since dealers should be motivated to sell their inventory and buyers likely are not in the same situation financially that they were just a few short months ago, what are your thoughts. Will dealers stick to their past selling parameters or be more willing to get their inventory moving?

    I talked to a salesperson at our local Camping World. She said last week they averaged 7-8 sales per day during the week and sold 23 units on Saturday. She stated she's worked 20 days straight. She also said no one wants to fly,stay in a hotel or go on a cruise so they're going camping.

    We just had a 4 day RV show, first since March, and more than doubled our usual sales figures. Business is excellent.
