We have friends and relatives who have made good deals at the Hershey show, trading in their current units on a new one. I don't know how Texas taxes work, but in many states when trading RVs, cars, or trucks you only pay sales taxes on the difference between trade value and selling price. In some cases that can be several thousand dollars.
X2 I think trading it in would and saving the extra tax $$$ would off-set the lower amount you get from PPL or CW. Have you tried talking a "deal" to a local dealer near you? When we traded our first fifth wheel in ('08 Montana Mountaineer) for our '11 Montana we got a hell of a trade in allowance from Pete's RV in Indiana. I was pleasantly surprised.
