Camping World Financing

Camping World in Kaysville Utah is listing trailers for sale with prices determined on financing through Camping World.

Not unusual in the auto world but a first for me in the rv world.
And this is on some less than 10k trailers. Like 10 yrs old.

    I'll second that and I am one of the ones who won't even finance a home any more.
    My wife and I built our last two from the ground up.

    A truly happy person is one who doesn't owe a penny to anyone

  • Shop around there are better rates than CW. A credit union here in COLORADO has 3.74%

    For the most part, I do to. I also understand that some will miss that special time with their young kids if they wait until they can pay cash.
    So it's a matter of balance.

    Our rule has always been to never make payments on toys. That means we had some junky RV's but we enjoyed camping anyway.

    I urge you to find your own financing but if you must go with CW, keep in mind that they get a legal kick-back on the interest you pay. Because of this you can negotiate a lower rate.
    One thing is for certain, NEVER negotiate based on a monthly payment amount!
  • If it's a way to make a buck, bigger chains and dealers will have explored it, and probably found a way to takke advantage of it.
    Seldom will an entity go to extremes to help someone else, and always there is something even more beneficial to them as the result of the deal.
