Another thing to consider is how mechanically inclined you are. How are your carpentry skills? If you would rely on someone else to do the work, then you need to take that into consideration. Eventually parts fail and will need to be replaced. When they fail is unknown. We both work fulltime and my schedule varies as far as what days I work. My wife's schedule doesn't and neither does my childs school schedule. We value the little time we get off together for the weekends. The last thing I want to be doing is to repairing or replacing something. And is one of the main reasons we choose to buy new. If I felt I was a better mechanic, had more confidence in my carpentry skills and had the time to do the work, then I too would might consider a used one. But that's just the nature of the beast.
