Supply and demand. People start seeing how useful a pick up is and start buying them, so the makers start raising the price because the demand is there. One of my buddies that's in the business told me that they make more profit on a pick up than on any other model. I don't know if that's really true, but judging from the price tag for a new one it sure seems about right.

so we went to the boat show today (Thursday). we got there early because we wanted to beat the snow home. it opened at noon and we were in by 20 after. gotta say, thing gets smaller every year. mako wasn't there this year. regulator is still the king. saw some beauties. the prices are unbelievable. spent a couple hours and we were home by 4pm. the boy got a collection of pens and key floats and he was happy. nice to dream.
cant wait til next year. (eh)

Sorta seems to me that they go hand in hand.. higher prices = less interest = less attendance = less exhibitors. While I completely understand the desire of manufacturers to make money, it's still hard for me to justify a 25' boat at over a hundred grand. So I don't buy new, and I don't go to boat shows. Why torture myself?
