2013 vs 2014 voltage

I think the only way you will know is to call Voltage direct. Everyone could speculate but they should know whats in the works.
good luck with your choice

You would have to research the changes, if any, that were made from 13'-14' and decide if paying more for the 14' is worth it. Somethings to think about, buying a 13' now means your buying a year old RV regardless of whether its new or not. You will feel that when you trade or sell out right this trailer. Buying a 14' now gives you a full year without a deduct in value based on the year. Don't assume that all options that were on the 13' version will be on the 14'. I just sold a 2010 Fuzion and bought a 2013 Fuzion. There were some things on the 2010 that I liked that are not on the 13' such as onboard air compressor, two door dovetail, retractable power cord in garage and so on. So don't assume that if the 13 has some particular options you like that the 14 will have all of the those plus some new features, doesn't always work like that. Overall if you plan on keeping this trailer for a long time, I don't think the year matters much, assuming all the features are equal. If you plan on flipping it every couple years, than buying a year old trailer becomes more of an issue.

Not really, the minute you roll off the lot it's dropped in value. If you wanted to sell it back to the dealer you won't get what you paid for it, it's now a used 2014. First couple years of ownership is when depreciation hurts the most.

True, I was looking and I just couldnt see any changes that I couldnt live without. I will not be flipping through trailers, we will have it for a long time! Call me crazy, but that seems like a good way to lose money! BTW, Y-Guy, I am from Kennewick, just moved to idaho :).

I have been seeing some very good deals on the '13s, I am not picky about color choices (I dont really like the black leather, but other than that...lol) so as long as we can find one on the ground in the Epic package we want, I think thats prob the direction we will go. Our friends are gonna order one from the factory cuz she is not finding what she wants, but the Camping World lady told us it could be 2 months to get it back...ugh. I am really looking forward to getting out, I dont want to wait 2 months lol

I recognize that. However 3 years from now they will be selling a 4 year old trailer. That means 2-4 K reduction in trade or resale value from a 13 to a 14. That's when you pay back the good deal you got when you bought the year old model. If you keep the trailer for a number of years that becomes less significant.

There is some awesome camping in Idaho, especially Central Idaho. The Sawtooth Mnts are incredible and right out your back door. With more Gov. owned land than any other State, you have access to some pristine wilderness.

Check the furniture - I think they started using the new residential grade furniture in '14 from what I recently looked at. Big big difference. You loose the under furniture storage, but better durability and comfort is more that worth it.
Check the slide out motors - changed the size (larger) in either '13 or '14. I know they are larger in the '14.
Changed the solid surface counter tops in '14, I actually liked the rounded edge style they used in '13 better
Added 12v radio in either '13 or '14, I know it is in the '14. Was told previous it was only 110v
No ice makers in '14 up to this point - issues with water lines and the slide.

Just purchased a 2014 Voltage 3895 after several weeks of painstaking comparing and shopping.
If I remember any changes or differences I post.

My '11 has a 12V radio / DVD / karaoke player in the garage that also plays outside.

Karaoke player? That's what every campsite doesn't need.

We just went for a drive Sunday afternoon, we went up past Horseshoe Bend and up through Placerville. What a gorgeous drive, we are really excited to explore more. Lots and lots of fun places to check out!
