Thanks for all the replies. But we have and are following alot of your suggestions. Searching Craigslist first (every FL area)and every other avenue.
Do not want to go on wild chases without the basic info we need. i.e. lenght,weight and an idea of price. We call, email and do not get answers. Therefore this rant!
So is your rant about private parties that don't list basic relevant information then don't return your e-mails? Well... there are a lot of idiots on craigslist... no arguement there!
I recommend finding the floor plan you want at a dealer lot or RV show. Once you know the floor plan you want you should be able to find the private party trailers on craigslist just by looking at the pictures. Calling a seller is usually more fruitful than sending an e-mail.
When I started looking I didn't know a bunkhouse from a slide. It didn't take much self education before I could tell a bunkhouse just by looking at a picture of the side of the trailer. Some idiots give no specifications and only a picture or two that aren't worth a darn.. these people are just idiots! The art of purchasing off of craigslist is learning how to quickly seperate the gems from the rough!
