How old is too old on year model?
We are shopping and on a tight budget. We are looking at bunkhouse type travel trailers. We already know we will be buying used. I know Airstream's last for years,but that is not in my current budget....

Mark Heisler is right on. I bought a 2008 new at the end of 2007.
I have replaced tires, inverter, and the main A/C unit. Plus any number of small things.
Now I try to keep up on stuff, but the mirror in the one closet door just broke, the rubber around one of the slide-outs is deteriorated and the carpet is getting tired looking. So despite my best efforts, it no longer is as good as new.
So if you do find a unit that is lightly used and practically in showroom condition, don't let the age automatically scare you away.
