The key is to educate yourself so that you are comfortable with whatever decision you make. RVs are about trade-offs, what works best for one might not do it for someone else. This is a great place to start, read some old threads & the FAQs, too, but also check manufacturer & dealer websites.
RV shows let you look at a lot at once, but remember those "special" RV show prices are generally available any time. MSRP means even less for RVs than cars, so don't go by a single dealer's suggested price, it can be quite inflated. I thought I got a good deal by buying at the end of the month at the end of the model year, but you do take a hit on depreciation that way.
RVs are a depreciating asset, so I wouldn't stretch my budget to buy more than I could really afford. New comes with a warranty, and that has some value, but the trick is to find something that won't need much work, new or used. Easier said than done. Take your time.
