With Thor owning Keystone, jayco, mobile suites, airstream, etc. i fail to see the "heavy competition ' they face. I believe thor Has formed a MONOPOLY in the Rv industry. This is extremely detrimental for buyers. If anythng we need is more competition between different manufacturers.
If 200 busts a sale, there must be more going on than just price. The cheaper one must have something more going for it than 200 dollars cheaper.. If Im getting more for 200, 2000, or 6000 in our case, we will spend the extra money.. if price was that much of a factor, no one would buy a limited, longhorn, king ranch etc.. But id bet there are many more Laramies and lariats on the road than tradesman or lts .. Back in the 1950s many many many more Belairs were sold than Chevrolet 150,s or 210s..the belair was the most expensive model at the time.
If it were really the price that THOR was concerened about, they would reduce the prices. Not use cheap carpet, and cheap parts.. ie trailer king tires, exterior moldings, silicone sealers instead of superior materials.
