Thanks StarVol!  I assume that I would have to pay my state taxes and title fees when brought home.  Seems like a pretty good price from what I've been seeing.

Quote from: StarVolPop Up Times,

I agree with you. Plus the fact the Hybrid is taking over the Pop Up Market. Pop Up Bathroom vs Hybrid Bathroom  Pop Up Price vs Hybrid Price. hmmmmmmm see what I am talking about First Time Buyers look at it and say why would anyone want a Pop Up.  We use to stock 35-50 Pop Ups at all time now we have cut it in half and raised the Stock of Hybrids.

Happy Camping

StarVol may have hit the nail on the head.  Supply and demand rules only work on commodity items.  Because manufacturing efficiencies dramatically effect prices on lower volume products (like campers) reduced demand results in increased prices.  This means that we will probably continue to pay higher prices for an equivalent pop up until the cost of fuel makes paying extra for a pop up a better economic decision.

So I guess all of us pop up lovers need to hope that gas prices hit $4/gal soon, then you won't be able to give away a hybrid and manufacturers will start competing to get our pop up business again.  Dropping the prices of the toys we love to a more reasonable range.  (Of course this really helps new comers more than us because the trade in value of our pop ups will drop when it is cheaper to buy new than used...)

 :yikes: I just gave myself a headache, I better stop while I am ahead.  (I am ahead, right  :confused: )
