Staying On The Road: Eric discusses the fluctuations in the RV industry over the years, influenced by economic factors, fuel prices, wars, and interest rates. He highlights how the industry experienced a boom after 2008/09 but underwent a gradual decline in quality. The pandemic led to a surge in demand, but the industry faced challenges like employee turnover and quality issues.
Eric suggests to enter maintenance mode due to the industry slowing down. He advises against buying new or used RVs at this time, expressing concerns about the industry's focus on efficiency and technology rather than addressing quality concerns. Instead, he recommend improving and fixing existing RVs, cautioning that selling a pandemic RV to buy a post-pandemic one may not solve underlying problems.
The Next Stop: Eric and Alexis take a road trip to Seattle Washington where they highlight some of the must-see areas surrounding the city! They talk about the great outdoors and how to take advantage of every moment you can as an RVer. The proximity to the city can also carry a special opportunity for last-minute supplies you may have forgotten for your RV adventure.
