When is the best time to buy
Okay, any ideas or suggestions on when is the best time of the year to purchase a new fiver? RV shows? Fall, when the new models are out? Winter, when sales may be down? Or maybe it doesn't really...

I gotta say that "when you have the money" makes the most sense to me.:)
If you wait until Fall, you will get a deal, but you'll also miss out on a season of RVing...a season that might have been PRICELESS with the memories you and your family could have had.
You also give up a year on the RV you are looking at, since the new ones will be coming out, so your 2013 is "old" already, and the depreciation is probably about what you would have saved.
Buying in the Spring....well, then you tend to have to compete with everyone else out there, to buy what you want, so the Dealers aren't as willing to make you a deal....but there are still some to be had.
Some states have Personal Property Taxes, which are based on ownership at the beginning of the year. We see a lot of people who sell their boats, RVs, etc., just so they don't have to pay the taxes for the year....personally, I don't know how much they really save.
When you have the money....buy what you want:)
