Wondering what percentage off on MSRP is typical for this kind of trailer? Looking at something like a 25' 2013 flying cloud model.
Or is it best to buy used?
From what I have seen and experienced regarding this whole world of RV's and I feel this applies to Airstream and all the other brands as well, this whole "MSRP" is pretty much a bogus number anyway that gets tossed out there so the sales team can play games with "discounts".
Possibly a better way to look at the whole cost issue is to find the trailer that fits your needs and desires, try to make the best deal you can, and then decide in your own mind if it's worth it or not. If it is, buy it and go have fun. Life is short, and after you have initially spent the money on it, you can move past that part of it, and get to the part where you are camped on the beach or in the mountains, sitting outside in the morning with a cup of coffee in your hands. At those moments, you won't even think about or care what you paid for it on delivery day.
Did I mention life is short ?
