Sorry - but the RV industry is not in a death spiral. Last weekend found me in CW of St. Augustine looking for a part for my friction sway device - which they didn't have, so they wanted me to buy a whole new unit - but I digress.
Walking through to the sales dept offices on the way to the bathroom, I observed the same sign in 90% of the offices - "New RV Owner!".
I then went outside in the rain to check out the open house on one of their lines - wasn't Coleman, but can't remember. Toured 3 TT's and 2 fivers, and boy what ****. Had signs in them of the open house price and the MSRP - 10K + differences. But these things are flying off the lot.
