Dunno what it's like now after this whole Covid deal... But, I traded my old 2003 Prowler back in July of 2019 for almost 3 times what I thought they would give me...
ON TRADE... I jumped on it. It was a very well kept and maintained 16 year old TT and everything worked, no leaks, no nothing... BTW.. It sold within a week of my trading it for $2000 over what they gave me! I'm fine with that.. Good for the dealer..
I got my 2019 Rockwood for a great deal on itself, so gonna keep it for at least as long I'm sure.. So far, it's been trouble free and I've made a ton of mods to it, just like I did with the old Prowler..
In the end, it's all up to what the buyer expects and wants and can MAINTAIN on their own with an RV..
If you own a house and have to have service people handle a leaky faucet, or you don't even know where your breaker box is, then??? There you go..
You gotta just have some DIY skills and know some basic stuff to deal with any RV these days.
I've helped out many 'newbies' over my time while 'camping' and I wonder how some put their pants on! ha, ha.... But really, it just comes natural to me, so dunno what every one else does?
I'm an old fart, so maybe that's part of it? ha, ha.. :)
