Price Increases Are Here: Due to Nationwide Supply Chain Issues, Manufacturers Are Raising Their Prices Industry Wide

It's no secret that RV sales increased throughout 2020 due to the pandemic. When most other travel options were put on hold, people turned their attention to the benefits of RVing. This led to an RV shortage. While the country has largely reopened now, the current situation continues to impact industries, including the RV industry.

There continues to be a shortage of RVs to meet the current demand. And even though manufacturers are ready to meet that demand, nationwide supply chain issues are getting in the way.

Like other vehicles, RVs are built from parts that are manufactured in many different locations. That means if there is a hold up with even one small part, it delays the manufacturing time of the entire RV. And this is happening on a large scale across the board right now.

So, you should expect to see rising MSRPs for at least the rest of 2021. But if you're in the market for an RV, there are a few things you can do to still get a good price on a new or pre-owned RV.

1. Shop our current inventory of new 2021 models

Sky River RV has 2021 models in our current inventory that were shipped before the price increases were put in place. This means you can still get a brand new RV at a great price. And we have a great selection to choose from. But you're going to want to act fast because as news gets out, these units are going to move fast.

2. Shop our used inventory

You may have heard that prices on used RVs have increased as well. Many private owners are taking advantage of the high demand for RVs by trying to sell at prices much higher than they previously could. Some RV dealerships are doing the same. But not Sky River RV. We have a great selection of pre-owned RVs on our lots; none of which have the price increases you may be seeing in other places. This allows you to find the RV that meets your needs without paying the increased prices caused by 2020.

3. Pre-order now from a selection of over 600 RVs

If you can't find exactly what you're looking for in the units we have in stock, you're not completely out of luck. We can help you pre-order an RV with the EXACT floorplan that works for you. Some of these units may arrive with increased costs, but buying today eliminates the risk of even higher cost increases in the future. If you want to buy an RV in 2021, there is no better time to do it than now. While you may have heard that the best deals are found in the "off-season" of RV travel, don't count on seeing drops in prices as the year goes on. The deals you're seeing right now may be your best chance to buy a new RV before price increases hit. If you're ready to buy your new or pre-owned RV, we're ready to help you get started today!
