I wanted a PU as my first RV. I looked at used and was SHOCKED at what they wanted for a simple model used pop up. So I took a trip to a dealership and was knocked over in SHOCK what a new one cost! Those used sellers were just trying to get some or if any of their money back.:B
They are not a little overpriced they are hugely OVERPRICED for what they are and what they are made of.
I bet if you could find some data on sales over the last ten twenty years that it just has to be falling. I rarely see them in CG's anymore when years ago they just about equaled the amount of TT's in any given CG.
Size, weight, tow vehicle needed is just NOT an argument anymore with the introduction of the ultra light small TT's into the market.
You can pick up a REAL nice ultra light TT with ALL the amenities of a full size trailer/MH for about half the price of a PU.
IMHO, JMHO they have priced themselves out of the market. The prices will have to come down or they will be out of business in years to come.
