We bought a 1988 C-Class Tioga back in 1999 for $20k and just sold it this year for $5k. It was in great shape.That's not just my biased (delusional) opinion:).
Now we did a lot of maintenance over the years and I think that is key. We now have a 2000 a-class and the 27 year old c-class was in better shape. We paid $15,000 CND for it and it's a fixer upper. But it cost less than the taxes on a new unit of which we cant afford anyway.
Buying new or newer doesn't always guarantee a trouble free experience.
Life isn't a dress rehearsal, if you can afford a new or newer unit, go for it.
