Older well built or newer TT

If you had a choice of buying an older well built TT (Artic Fox, Lance etc...) or a newer (not new) TT with less quality for the same price what would you buy?

I'm getting ready to buy a "newer" TT (the one I have is 31 YO)and I'm dismayed at some of the junk I'm seeing. I'm going to be in the 15 to 20 grand range. Also going to be in the 28 to 30' range.

What would you do?

    I was in the same situation many years ago, comparing a 3 yo hardly used higher quality FW, from private seller, to a brand new el cheapo FW of similar size, for about same money. Glad I took the obvious route. That higher quality used FW served me well for many years.

    Good luck,
