The biggest thing is not age, it's if the sealing has been kept up with.
Also, some types of construction are easier to wok on (seal, fix, maintain) etc than others.
Slide-outs add another level of maintenance.
When factoring in the cost of new campers, buying used was a not brainer for me. I would not be able to afford a new one anyway.
That way, you can try it out, and see what works for you, what you like and don't like, and not break the bank. You can always break the bank later :B
I bought my 2001 Lance with aluminum siding last year, did some sealing and some upgrades myself, for about 5 times less than a new camper. It was a no brainer.
