Found a trailer I like at a dealership and I am aware the market is insane right now, but they are asking $2k more than the trailer cost brand new. Said trailer is 8 years old and the manufacturer went out of business.
Is it considered rude to attempt to haggle? The same dealer last year sold a trailer of the same brand but was a three horse slant instead of 2 horse straight and had more windows for only $1k more than they are asking for this one. Has anyone ever had success haggling with a dealer? I was hoping to knock it back down to what it had cost new.

Sure you can. All they can do is say no. But with that, like houses right now, what it cost new doesn't have a lot of reflection on what market value is today. Like you, I have seen several 4-7 year old nice bumper pulls bringing what they did new. But I don't think that trend will continue either.
