First of all, you do NOT want to buy a new trailer. Depreciation on RVs is absolutely BRUTAL. Savvy buyers let some other idiot eat the depreciation.
Huh. I wonder what percentage of new RV buyers actually keep it more than 5 to 7 years? I'm not sure where we would find studies of that kind of thing, but anecdotal evidence from the different forums suggest, to me, at least, that it's a pretty low number.
