  Interesting. Wish they went deeper into demographics of buyers. Thought it was predatory when entry level cars were peddled with 7 year loans. Have to wonder when day of reckoning arrives with 12 year RV loans at 2%+ higher interest rates than autos has predictable impact. That and relatively high cost of ownership due to maintenance and repairs. It's not fun being a wet blanket over an otherwise decent video.

  Anecdotally I've been told by folks in industry many of new owners are 35-50 demographic. 
  
  And given the buying trends these days, one would think it may be a buyers market in a couple years or so

  Yes, RV sales seem to cycle, up and down, right now it is a sellers market with the high demand.

  Yes, that is what I am seeing, anecdotally, too. 
  
  I think we will see a lot for sale in about 2-3 years.

  Now, here’s another sign of the times. I just got back from a round trip to Indianapolis (70 miles round trip, more or less) and my route went past at least 10 new auto and truck dealers. Their sales lots, new and used look like they are social distancing their vehicles from each other!  The lots are sparse with new and used vehicles. This is both cars and trucks!  WOW!
