Anyone ordered one recently? What discount are dealers giving on new orders?

Curious what the current discounts are and what I should be looking for. I got I think 32% on my 2019 Ventana. We are looking at possibly ordering a Dutch Star or New Aire, and wondering what I should be pushing for.

Also, any recommended dealers in the Texas, OK, MO, AR, LA, MS, TN areas?

Following....I am looking to buy a Grand Star in the future, but won't buy a 2026 as it is the first year, and I've had bad luck buying (cars) when introduced.

The best discount I've found thus far was a 20% below the MSRP. Your 32% is terrific.

I hope this thread generates some interest and thank you!

Best,

Greg

That was in 2018, before the crazy inflation, RV market booming, and currently feeling like it’s busting. That’s why I was curious what the current landscape looked like.

What is surprising to me is how many of the 2026 Grand Stars have been listed for sale for 180 Days. It doesn't seem like a popular style.

Best,

Don’t think you really have to worry about first production year on those.

The differences are removal of the air ride cab, etc so actually somewhat less modification needed to build the Grand Star from the Superstar (just my thoughts).

The S2RV chassis has been around for quite a while too.

But, things don’t seem to be moving no matter what you are looking at. Dealerships we pass by seem to be completely full of inventory. So, don’t think it is a Grand Star specific issue that they have been for sale that long.
