Our first TT was like that. Got a very good discount for it being a previous model year but was in Sept. at the end of the season. After just one season we realized it was simply way too small for us. When we found the new TT we wanted we tried to trade it in at the dealer. They simply looked up the Blue Book value and offered us a price for a 2 year old unit despite only having used it for one season from new plus we had spent a lot on mods and upgrades. The offer was insultingly low so we decided to sell it ourselves and in the end got more than the dealer's offer.
If you do decide to buy that particular TT, I would think carefully whether or not you intend to keep it for a number of years to come or not otherwise could lose a bundle on selling it or trading it in. Money spent on mods & upgrades may not be recouped either.
Jayco is a well regarded brand and would be a good choice over others. I like the fact that they have a BAL frame too.
