Should I buy a Class C or not for this specific situation?
Hi,
We have owned a 5th wheel, travel trailer, and truck camper in the past. We have wanted to buy a used class C for about 10 years but have not done so for the following reasons:
1. We would have to buy one for about $30,000 max and as a result would have to get one that is many years old (8 to 10 is my guess). I am very worried that it would be difficult to sell it when the time comes because it likely would be 15 years old after 5 years or so of ownership. What are your thoughts about this?
2. As a result of having to buy a unit about 10 years old (due to budget constraints) I worry that it would need a lot of repairs both inside and mechanically and therefore would be troublesome and costly. What is your experience with units 10 to 15 years old?
I want to thank you in advance for sharing your experience with me. It is very helpful to me and greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Jeff Fox
