Wow... $44,000 for a 21ft trailer? and it's not an Airstream? Guess I've been out of the market for a long time!
I guess I also have been out of the market as well. I would think $22,000 would be a decent price for a new non- full time coach by Lance. For $44,000 I would go pre- owned Airstream, that has had all it's initial depreciation, aluminum sides and roof (no delam), torsion bar axles, and it will last 30 or more years with care. The $44,000 Lance will be worth around $7500 in ten years.
For around $44k new several Northwood manufacturing trailers could be purchased, they are often full time rated, have a far greater CCC, bigger tires and axles, stouter frame, often bigger tanks, and an excellent reputation for handling cold and hot temperatures. And $44k will likely purchase Northwood trailers that are 25-30 feet long, substantially larger than 21 feet for a family that is looking for a bunk house.
