I am getting to the point of simply giving up on my search for a new TT. I blame my frustrations on the whole Covid scene: Lots of new RV owners/RV buyers means that RV dealers are far from being hungry, and they apparently are getting away with treating potential customers like garbage!
I cannot get a single dealer to call me back, even when I send them the three models I'm interested in, even when I let them know that I'm a cash buyer.
Trips to the dealers are bad experiences, as well. I walked around a well-known dealer's lot, just outside of Austin. I passed lots of employees. Not one asked if they could help me and one, when I approached her, told me she'd be right back, and never returned!
OK, I get it. The models I'm interested in have gone up about $15-20K in the last six months. The dealers are fat with cash. They can't keep inventory. Why should they hustle?
I can sell my 2018 TT for more than I paid for it, it seems. Insane!
I guess I'll be hitting the online RV sites that sell units from all over the US. The thought of driving a thousand miles to pick up a unit I've never seen, previously, is not something I am nuts about, but I don't think I'll get what I want, staying around Austin.
Have any of you bought a new RV, lately?
