buying an rv

We have purchased new from dealer, used form dealer, and used from private party. By far the best deal for us was the used/private party. Had a very difficult time shopping for a good used rig here in WA state. Spent a couple of months on dealer lots. Many said they would not even detail the rig until they had an offer on it...saw some really abused, stinky and dirty rigs. Believe it or not, one local lot even showed us a rig that still had a pair of dirty underwear on the closet floor. Buying from a private party especially if they are the original purchaser can show maintenance and care efforts. At least it worked for us.

Best Wishes on your quest!
