The good thing about buying new is its completely yours, and by that I mean you can stock it and leave stocked with your personal weekend/camping gear, bedding and know its all together. We liked our used trailer that we started with but unbeknownst to us the floor was rotten and unrepairable for us to do. If you are planning on buying new then I suggest borrowing or renting for a weekend or two just to get the feel. It will let you know what you like and dislike, and can plan your purchase accordingly.
I would hate for you to jump in with both feet and find you bought the wrong trailer for your use. We started with a 19 ft Bigfoot that my DW hated and moved up to a 21 1/2 ft Palamino which still didnt satisfy her space needs (it didnt have a slide) but the size of trailer was all I could tow at that time. I finally broke down and bought a new Passport and havent looked back since. But thats our story, your about to embark on your story and we wish you the best.
