Surprising, I think.

With the current trajectory of our economy I'm sure this is just the beginning.

Shades of the mid 2000's - when Hijacker, Teton, Holiday Rambler, Monaco bit the dust?
I have no doubt there will be more fall out.
I wonder how the price of a new Vanleigh now on a dealer's lot will be impacted.Larry KE4DMG

I was wondering the same thing, so I went on RV Trader earlier today. Seems like new 2022s and 2023s list prices are substantially lower on most models than what I recall seeing last Fall. I had looked at their toy hauler late last year. Although I can't be certain, it seemed like the advertised prices on the Ambition are $20-30K lower than what I saw in Dec. Now, there were a few listings in the $180K range, so there is that.
The letter Leigh Vanleigh wrote to the employees indicated Tiffin would honor all warranties.
I've owned an RV from a manufacturer that went under (had an Evergreen Element). Getting model-specific parts wasn't easy, especially for something unique like the Element line.2022 Solitude 378MBS-R

This sure puts the folks that have one on order, but not yet delivered, in a tough spot. I think I would want to cancel.
