My local dealer is dropping prices. Somewhat substantially on bigger trailers.
Maybe the price gouging is almost over (except for fuel)?
$19,900 down to $18,500.

My local dealer still has stacks of trailers ready to assemble. Sales have dropped off Im assuming. Reality has set in concerning spending for the average family here.

It would be a welcome change to see the prices come back down to reality.

I have been seeing stacks of Big Tex trailers at a dealer near here as well, they have gone from an almost empty lot to not having enough room to put another one.

What were they before the "problem"? A 1,400 difference on $20k trailer isn't much.
I had been following Lowes Landscape 6x12 and they had been running ~$1.400, then overnight they jumped to $2,800. Now that was a difference.

Smart trailer dealer. Probably wants to keep sales going strong as people begin to drive less and less.

I haven’t really paid attention to prices but I have seen more trailers sitting on dealers lots.

The rush to purchase "before prices increase" along with fuel prices going up who wants to buy a trailer.
Recreation trailers should be dropping back to before pandemic time.

Must be nice to think $1,400 isnt a lot of money.

Your the one looking at a $18K+ trailer.
If you are looking at the difference between $19,900 and $18,500 for the trailer you mentioned it is $1,400, or about 7.5% of the lower price.
For the trailer I mentioned the same $1,400 represents 100% of the lower price.
Must be nice to get an $18K+ trailer.
