Looking for used TT in $5000 range
Im in central ohio and looking to buy our first TT for my wife and I to use occasionally through the year. We would like something under 25' and be able to sleep up to 6 or so. I have looked on Craigs...

Seriously, have a look at the section about first time RV'ing. There is so much great information there, and $5000 could get you a pretty nice TT, or a real bag of s--t almost just as easy.
When I sold mine, I sold it in prime season, and I had it loaded with water too. I showed the buyers that every single item in the unit worked, and the fridge and furnace were all ok, the hot water tank gave hot water, and the fans and lights all worked too. You have to be so careful, and even if you are not careful, and decide to trust someone.. it's still a big******shoot.
There is tons of good advice on the beginning RV forum, check lists and such. Enjoy the hunt, and you will have fun looking. Just don't jump at the first one, because almost everyone has already made that mistake.
Some seem newer, but are very poorly built with cardboard and foams, others are a lot older, show their age, but are built to last a lot longer yet. Know the brands before you shop for a floor plan, or even consider a unit. Always remember, you want to buy something that appeals to others for it's quality and features, because there is always a time when you want to sell it and move on.
Good luck!
