Gas prices will absolutely tank RV sales. I can't believe the number of posts on FB where people are selling their RV's because the don't like the lifestyle, can't afford the RV, and latest, can't afford the gas to take their RV somewhere. I talked to a Class A owner in FL that is thinking of paying storage fees to keep it in FL and flying home, because it's cheaper than driving it back up North.
Not sure I believe the numbers.
Suppose that Class A gets 6 mpg, and the "trip north" is 1500 miles. That's 266 gallons @ $5.50 a gallon equalling $1,463. That's gonna be a very cheap ticket and storage fees to come out ahead, then he'll have to return to retrieve it.
It's all cyclical. Drive slower and take shorter trips, at least for a few months.
