Are the discounts on the 2019's less than years past?

[Jtrving]

A while back there was a thread that speculated that discounts might be less this year than what dealers were offering the past year or two on new units, due to the high demand and the completely sold out build slots.

For those of you that have ordered or purchased 2019's off of the lot, what type of discounts are you seeing?

We have found that if you do a custom order your discount will be higher vs buying off the dealer lot. (No dealer floor planning cost to dealer).
This discount is highly dependent on what dealer you buy from.
I would not settle for less than 28%, that should be a starting point!!

Just purchased a 2019 DSDP off the lot. Got 26% off MSRP. We didn't haggle to hard. Found the perfect coach, completely loaded, chassis we wanted. Didn't want to wait til Dec for ordered unit.

Ordered a new MA with several specials. Discount was over 28% including the specials.

IMO - There is a lot more 'play' in the specials/options numbers.

I don’t think you can apply a one size fits all discount across the Newmar lineup. The lower cost units will generally be at a lower discount %.
When comparing discounts not all dealers are the same, some offer a larger discount % but charge $3500 for a PDI and also charge for Delivery , While others don’t charge anything for PDI or Delivery.
Newmar dealers are pretty confident they can sell every unit they have on order, plus maybe more.
