To buy used or new?
I'm looking at 2015 prowler lynx 30lx or 2018 jayco jayflight slx. Not sure if it's worth buying used or new? Need a little help

Something else to think about ... if someone has a GOOD camper, they are going to hang on to them until they become dissatisfied with it because of a floor plan that no longer works, they can't keep up the loan payment for whatever reason, the unit is defective and they want to dump it, or they've simply worn it out. Very rarely do you bump into the little old lady that only took the camper out one time on a Sunday scenario. Buying used, means someone else rejected it for some reason. (Just something to think about if you decide to look at used. Ask, why does the previous owner no longer want this camper?)
- Newbies who didn't know what they were getting into.
- Oops, we had another kid, time for a bigger unit.
- I get a new one every 2 yrs.
- I bought it 10yrs ago used it once and it's never left the pole barn since then.
Actually with an RV, the little old lady scenario is very common. The only thing to be careful of is they didn't leave it outside and not keep up on the roof sealing.
