Video: NIRVC on ‘Secrets’ Behind Spiking Cost of Ownership for Motorhome Owners

In the most recent “Brett Talk” video, National Indoor RV Centers (NIRVC) President and CEO Brett Davis takes a deep, data-driven look at the RV industry: 45 years of history, growth trends, myths and the real cost of ownership for motorhome buyers.

This is not another surface-level update, as Davis digs into:

• Dealer and manufacturer financial realities
• The true impact of inventory overhang and overproduction
• The secrets that quietly drive excessive depreciation and cost of ownership for owners

Davis also shares why towables continue to grow while motorhome sales have continued to decline over the past 45 years, and what that means for anyone considering (or already owning) a motorhome. The video is long because the topic deserves depth. Davis breaks it all down with real numbers, clear comparisons and a hopeful look at what could change if the industry applies first-principles thinking.
