I think this is a rebound effect from the manufacturing "program of the month" about "quality is free". It was based on the idea of that by improving quality the return rate, customer satisfaction,...

I think this is has been, and will continue to be, pretty common. Based on the huge number of brand new towables that we see in campgrounds there are an awful lot of newbies or expensive...

I don't know how the 1716 calc was done but if you take the the 2021 at 3066 and the 2018 at 1306 you get an increase of 1760 units, which would be the last normal year to now. That is 440 units...

That is interesting if there really are that many still sitting around.

I wonder if some of the past high wholesale shipment numbers for Hymer are related to the comments in the closing of Hymer about falsified VIN numbers and sales? If so they may not show up as...

I don't think anyone will really know what the market is doing or going to do until balance happens over some time. The shipments collapsed when Hymer stopped producing, but the sales of Hymer's may...

Good question. Local class b dealer has 11 new units of various brands on the lot, which is fairly typical to maybe a touch low.

Has Hymer misjudged the market, maybe, maybe not, but addressing the all ranges of prices is likely where they need to be with all the competition that is showing up.

Looking at how they are equipped it might be better to compare them to US conversion vans with a high roof, as they are closer to them than to a class B motorhome, I think.

I think we are being a bit hard on some of the new units, which I admittedly haven't seen in person, though.

We have spent the last number of years here lamenting the very rapid escalation of...

I would remind everyone of the perpetual question of why Class B's are so expensive. Lots of reasons like hard to fit in odd shapes, higher quality materials, etc, all valid. Also recall the...

The Hymer Winnebago swap is so close to inverted from the previous months, it makes you wonder about a typo. :confused::confused: Stunning to be sure.

There is also another possibility, that is totally unprovable. US tradesmen and RV folks like the V8 gas power of the old school vans. Perhaps GM is waiting until they have an engine that can equal...

It is almost like they are sitting back and watching how it shakes out, and in the interim they are at capacity providing vans to the "buy American old school crowd". There are lots of tradesmen...

It is sure does seem be showing the market trending toward the value based customers, and leaving less for the high end suppliers to fight over.
