higher rv prices

Just saw a news flash from Thor Industries regarding future RV pricing. Going up substantially because of tariffs. I guess they need a better bottom line.

Yep, their stock price is tanking. Steel, aluminum, and higher fuel prices.

jsmith948 - you have discretionary income? Just kidding. Glad I am not in the market for a new TT. The tariffs are going to raise a lot of prices in the future. Get Ready.

Don’t forget consumer demand. RVDA reported this will be the third year in a row of record wholesale deliveries- 520,000+ units.

Hmmmm....means the resale demand and price of pre-owned RVs will also be going up. Good news if one is looking to "get out of RVing".

When dealt lemons...make lemonade.
