Purchase from dealer or private party?
When we buy an RV, which is the better route to go? Dealer or private party? Here are just a few things that I could think of.. In terms of: 1. Financing 2. Extended warrantees Or anythin...

i think an important thing to also factor in is if you are new to RV'ing you may not know for sure that camping and owning an RV is really for you. So buying a brand new one is going to leave you with an upside down vehicle to try and sell if it doesn't work out for you and your family. That was my thinking.
I first ran out and put down a substantial amount on a brand new Class A. Got home and started thinking about the depreciation just taking it off the lot and WHAT IF I really did not like full time RV'ing? How would I get my money back on it selling it?
I went back and they thankfully gave me my money back. I found a real nice used RV for a great price. It was priced that if after a year or so I wanted to bail out I could sell it for what I bought it for.
IMHO a used RV bought right is the best financial move for just about anyone first starting out. Look for the deal that you can sell it for what you bought it for is the best way to go. Has worked for me for many years now.
