Colorado 60th RV show

Anybody go to the Colorado show yet this week at the Coliseum? Just wondering if Windish brought any Redwoods.

Ya, no Redwoods, Landmark, DRV, only a few DPs. Guess I won't waste my time at the RV shows in Denver anymore. It's a different market they are after now it seems.

The Louisville show was terrible. We saw one interesting floor plan that included a front kitchen. Our bumper pull Artic Fox had the same layout and we liked it quite a bit.

As was the Dallas Show for what we were looking for...

MHSRV had their own show at their dealership
and NIRV was the only motorcoach dealer there.

As Dave said, mostly entry level and LOTS of running kids !
It was maybe half of what it was last year.

I'm thinking, since these RV shows are showing more entry level campers, maybe they can't keep up with the demand and therefore don't feel the need to advertise fulltime units.

I wonder if the RV shows are going in a different direction. The ones we have attended in the past have had a good variety of different "price points", and models to appeal to the different segments of purchasers..motor homes, fifth wheels, and bumper pulls. Seems they had something for everyone...

One dealer told me that he brings trailers under 50k and MH under 95k because those are the ones that have the most buyers. So I guess they aren't going after the more seasoned owners

We went to a show in a mall parking lot a couple weeks ago & they had the whole spectrum, DRV, Rushmores(which I understand are discontinued, replaced with Cameo), toyhaulers, motor homes big & small, class C's & B's, really a good show & not 100's of acres to look at.

Well now I feel better. At least it wasn't just the Houston RV show. Only two Full timer units at the show. The rest were all entry level type of units.

Just wondering if they show the entry level units this time of year to attract young families for summer travel & drag out the big stuff in the fall for us mature snowbirds.

My hair color says I am definitely not entry-level, but I am far from mature. My DW keeps telling me I'm not 20. My body keeps telling me I'm not 20, but my brain thinks it is still 20.

I suffer from the same problem. Last week one of my sons made a bet with me about some push ups. I surprised him but the next day he was walking better than me

I had a similar bet with my nephews a few years back. Only problem is they are half my weight. I suggested we do them with me on their back and 1 of them on mine. No takers. PHEW!

Approximately 20 years ago, when my son was 15 and a wrestler in high school he kept getting lippy with me and telling me how I was an old man. I told him it was time to get down on the floor and settle it with a wrestling match. After about 15 minutes of me grunting I was able to pin him! While I was laying on the floor laughing, he got up and rushed off to his room slamming the door behind him. I looked up and motioned to my wife to come over to me and I whispered in her ear, " You need to help me get up and don't ever let me do that again, I'm not sure I can walk!" Needless to say, my son didn't know that part of it for many years! Ha HA.....Ouch!

I can see there will be many more new stories added to the adult beverage circle at the Rally ......

I believe better quoted, as a " tall drink of an adult beverage " What I did notice, was there was mention as too the diameter, of said beverage.
