There was a guy on Reddit recently complaining about how hard it was to keep up with orders for his teardrop trailers. A bunch of people told him he wasn’t charging enough and should raise his prices and use the money to hire someone and also to look for better deals from suppliers (eg, larger orders less frequently).

My parents (now ~70yo) ordered an expensive offroad trailer/caravan around the time COVID hit. The regular build time plus delays will put it at almost three years from order to delivery. For people who are not exactly getting more agile each year! I feel for them. They have very limited recourse against the delays also.

Pretty sure it was this guy.

Yeah those look like him.

Those are some very complicated trailers and he’s charging the same or less than simpler ones.

He was unshockingly backlogged six ways to Sunday so if you’re looking for a deal that won’t be it. I can look if you still care.
He's posted to r/DIY a few times I think.
