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....

X2 on what Mark said. I had a 10 year old Carriage, and took very good care of it through the years. All the little stuff had to be done, glued, replaced, or tightened, but in the end, I would take it anywhere.
No major appliances, but had laid up 2k for major repairs, but I did yearly cleaning of coils, contacts, and connectors. Did the bearings and brakes, balanced the tires and all went well.
So look for a well "taken cared of" trailer, and not for what year it is. A fabulous 10 year old is better than a beaten up 3 year old. Good Luck
