Used Airstream values rising?

[Zybane]

Are used Airstream values rising? I noticed NADA is listing my 2016 30 Classic "Average retail" as $109K and "Low retail" as $90K. That is a bit more than it was two years ago.

Hi

The prices of all used RV's have gone insane in the last year or so. Folks worked out that having an RV let them travel when the virus had everything else shut down. Stocks of new RV's have essentially been wiped out. Dealers can not put in "stock" orders for most brands. Most expect them to begin getting stock mid next winter.

The backlog of orders to fill at all RV manufactures have driven up the price of used units. People might wait a month for a new unit, but lead times are 8+ months for many RVs.

Buying used, you get it now.

Hi

Some brands / some models are talking about well over a year lead times ....

Yes, and will continue to stay high for the short-term, until mfg. backlogs and delivery schedules catch up, and satisfy demand.

Demand >>>>>> Supply.

Leveling off by Labor Day?

Stand by and remain calm.

Hi

Remain calm unless you were thinking about selling your RV. If that's the case, do it now. Might things rise a bit more? maybe. Will they drop a bit by late fall? That's the way the normal yearly cycle tends to go ....

Yep, that's how a commodities market works.

Demand +, supply - = $+...
