How many brand new parks are developed each year relative to the current parks? Our experience is not many new parks getting built or fully refurbished.
I've seen what is supposed to be a RVIA prediction of 55000 new sites, not parks, next year. Now at 150 sites per new park that works out to 370 new parks or 8 per state if they are evenly distributed. Which they won't be.
I'm also seeing lots of reports of local NIMBY resistance to new parks, it is happening right in this area. Some people want to build a 370 site park and the locals are up in arms. The locals are complaining about added traffic and they seem to think that RV parks are filled with long term resident trash. Mobile park style.
RV Park owners, unless they have taken leave of their senses, will wait until there is a critical mass of electrified RV's before paying to upgrade parks. And I don't think 2% eRV will motivate many park owners.
I can see, IF these eRV's are built in numbers, RV parks adding 10 or 20 premium sites with power chargers for them. Don't forget these eRV will be even more expensive than they are now. I doubt that the government will be hiding the cost of these EV with giant subsidies
