I'm a member of a HUGE Camping and RV group on Facebook. Yes, lots and lots of buyers and those selling to buy new or newer. However, there's also a LOT of those buyers that want to put their RV on a seasonal site. Makes me wonder how many of the overall sales are buying for travel use...

I can't speak for the situation as a whole, but I know of 3 people who all the sudden decided to buy an RV, within the past month. The reasons are they want to travel but don't want to stay in motels, and they are afraid to fly anywhere. All due to COVID. These are retired folks whose incomes have not been affected. It could be once the crisis is over, they decide to sell. But they might like camping so much they don't. I was sort of hoping this summer not many folks would be out and about in the woods, but I'm thinking that's not going to be the case! The state highway in my rural part of Idaho has been full of motorhomes and trailers for weeks now, one after another. They're all going somewhere!
The RV storage lot business is booming around here. You see them everywhere and they are always full. I have often joked to my wife that we should buy another trailer and park it in one of those lots.
