Just saying what a GM said about trailer sales
On a local outdoor sports show the GM of a large RV dealer in Portland was on the show talking about mainly what they sell. Then he was asked what is the biggest seller and why. He said it is a 28 ft TT bunkhouse. Mainly for younger families and towing with 1/2 ton trucks. He further said that the biggest market is in the 26ft and smaller because of the smaller trucks and SUVs are big vehicle sellers. And of course the newer trailers are lighter than before.
They sell only pull type RVs, TTs and 5ers and truck campers. They might have 4 or 5 different brands. Maybe the longest dealer in Portland selling RVs.
I think I see more large 5ers (excluding motorhomes) with older couples traveling on the interstates and highways around here than the smaller RVs and was a little surprised by what he said.
