We looked and looked, wife wanted new due to warranty, could not find floor plan she liked. Some were suitable but! We found one a 4 season/feathers (thor) that was 4 years old, low milage had what I considered important a comfortable drivers compartment, wife liked floor plan but not the materials (leather/white vinyle). She was worried about no warranty. Even on new only 1 brand said they stood behind the warranty, all others are by individual manufacturer, IE micro covered by GE got to go to them, AC by coleman had to deal with them etc. Jayco said they were 1 stop warranty and would take care of it (only 1 to do so). Generally warranties are 1 year on coach, 3/36000 of power train, 1-2 years on appliances so new to me is no real reason to go new IMO. I contacted good sam, they offered a 7/70000 full coverage for $5000 bumper to bumper. However the 3 coaches we liked Jayco their top line, the aspire from winnie and the used 4 feather/season 1st 2 up around $90 K, last down to $55K payment for 20 years on all, wife said no, I said no we decided to keep out TT and just detail it out for its age. So If you find a nice used you like call good sam, if you want long term (longer than new w/o the extended warranty contract). New you can buy extended but watch what they cover just read the magazines and the complaints on the coverages that is trailer and MH. Lots luck, and just my NSIO.
