Frustrated with my RV purchase.

This is one of the reasons why it is best to buy a lightly used almost new unit instead of a new one. In the first year all of those goodies get bought & all the bugs have been worked out too.

This gets repeated all the time, but I don't agree. Just watch and listen to the average RV owner and you will understand what I am talking about. Even on this forum, that is made up of mostly enthusiasts, many abuse their RVs with poor jacking, leveling and maintenance procedures. When someone points out a weakness of imperfection, the blame game will start immediately. Yes, cosmetic things may get fixed.

We've had excellent luck buying used. I do agree with reading some of the forums as you will find as many stories of folks buying new and spending most of the first year with it in the shop getting repaired and not out camping.
