this is a big purchase for us. Outside of a home mortgage, our philosophy is, "If we can't pay cash for it, then we don't buy it." We don't even have credit cards. HOWEVER, we can't pay cash for this Arctic Fox, therefore we are having to justify the purchase and financing. Since getting to the outdoors and traveling is a major part of our lives, we deemed this purchase as THERAPY....
I highly endorse being debt free. You are looking at a nice TT and I understand the desire. We are interested in the Arctic Fox 25R but the closest dealer is almost 300 miles. It will be a long drive to go look at one.
Keep in mind, you can get the same "therapy" with a $5,000 TT as you can with a $30,000 TT. Think of the future, how does the purchase of this TT with credit play into your long range financial plans? Now run the same line of reasoning with a $5,000 TT that is paid for.
