In the RV industry, what a unit is worth at this time, is NOT what it will be worth 6 months from now. 6 months is roughly equal to 4-7% is retail value. Well managed dealerships are aware of this and refuse a unit they do not think they will be able to sellable within weeks, if not days. Oh, and defects are usually marked in blue tape, not red. Sometimes yellow.

You sound like you work for a dealer. I toured the factory a while back and saw the tape process in QC. "RED TAPE" ain't a good thing and it is what they used on the units I looked at...it was quite obvious it was marking broken items. I was AT the dealership I spoke of and they told me exactly what I quoted. It isn't theory or opinion. What is your theory for all the red tape I saw?
