Manufacturing everywhere in every industry is suffering. Container ships not getting unloaded, steel not being produced enough, and better wages on unemployment to stay home amongst a lot of other things has created a nightmare for pricing and lead times in industry.
Our story starts in Nov of 2020 and we were looking for a camper like everyone else. By January 2021 we had narrowed it down on the model. Which happened to coincide with may of the RV shows. We ended up ordering a OutdoorsRV model from Bish’s RV. The ordering process was open till April and with our deposit our place in line was sealed. We were going to be the new owners of a 2021 camper in time for hunting season. It was scheduled to be built the first week of Aug. All of this was done they the special show pricing which was better than anywhere else by far.
With all of the above reasons and more it kept getting delayed. It finally got built the last week of September. But, it was not finalized until after Oct 1. This is a important as the model years changed for the factory, making out camper a 2022 model.
Thru no ones fault the contract was priced at 2021 prices. However, 2022 pricing was significantly higher with all the issues going on.
After some not so fun debates with the dealership, the conclusion was they would honor the contract they signed for the 2021 model.
I have to give a very positive referral to Bish’s RV. They are loosing money on this sale, and they have to pay the salesman his commission. In a day and age in business where it’s more about survival than necessarily your word, it’s nice to see them standing behind their promise to their customers.
If your considering a new camper, please give Bish’s (especially the Omaha store) a call, you will get treated right.
