I think selling a used 2007 right now is very hard. It was purchased when the economy was firing on all cylinders and sold for a good price to the dealer. Now the dealer is looking to sell an 07 that has been on the lot for 18 months and blows it out for what you still owe on your boat. That hurts. The same will not happen, IMHO, with 09 boats because dealers will order less to accomodate the decreased demand and the prices of 09s will be buoyed up. To directly answer your question: don't expect any good deals on 09 boats. Everyone has gouged everyone over the gas prices. Even the pizza delivery guy charged me an extra $2 the other day even though I know he used 50 cents in gas to get to my house, and for years it used to be 25 cents. So the cost of manufacturing has gone up substantially. Tige has really stepped it up in every sense on their 09's. You should go see the guys at Wasatch Marine in Salt Lake. Top notch guys who understand service. You will be impressed by the fit, finish, and construction of the Tiges as well.
