Dayton RV Show

Wife and went to RV show yesterday. Didn’t see too much that was new. Three items got our attention.

1. Disappointed in quality of Grand Design units
2. Were impressed with quality of Montana 5th wheels and quality of Minnie Winnie
3. A can of pop was only one dollar at the concession stand.

Not really looking for anything new. Just like to keep abreast of what is happening.

John

We attended the East Tennessee show last weekend and I agree with you about the quality of the Grand Design units. We looked at two of them and they just weren't where I thought they should be for the price.

We purchased a new Sandpiper last year and we thought it was a good purchase compared to the quality and cost of the same floorplan from Grand Design. We were still of that same mind after looking at the show.

We didn't have concessions

We went to the Louisville rv show yesterday. We love our CC 38EL, we saw nothing new in the year and a half since we bought our 2017. We where there 6 hours and only looked at campers. They had just as many boats, but never looked at any of them.

We where there looking at 5000 lbs TT range, for my brother inlaws 1st rv.

Can of coke was $3, a 16 oz beer was $7 or $8. They had food and mixed drinks but never got it those lines.

Thinking about going to Dayton show today.

Went to the Dayton show yesterday.

A waste of $20.

There were no average plus anything except Airestream. No nice motor homes. Everything was lower end.

Grand design had their cheap models.

No acessories of any sort. Many home improvement booths. Long lines at the entrance. Long lines at the garage. Free parking if you asked for a voucher. no signs etc. to tell you.

steps down from the previous location.
