The 2012 model year Koala trailer I currently have was built in April of 2011. The tires, going by the date molded on them, were built in 2010. So it's possible they are that old.

Any thoughts on why a 2016 model of a popular brand of travel trailer, that's not an orphan, would still be on a dealer's lot when the 2018's are either on the lot already, or are about to arrive?
Also, I would assume tires would be a major negotiating point if I decided to get one of those two trailers. Those tires would be 2+ years old by now.
How do you figure? If the '18s are just starting to show up, then the same for the '17s one year ago. That '16 may have been toward the end of production, so 1 year old tires, 2 at most, not "2+." RV manufacturers are cheap, they won't pay to keep tires around for long before they get put on a trailer.
