Value of 2010 TT - 33K MSRP??
The last TT I bought was new and I negotiated about 33% off MSRP (+ got WDH). I'm eyeing a 2010 unit listed at 19K. The MSRP was around 33K back in 2010. I can't see paying over 15K for it and I'm ...

I can't see paying over 15K for it and I'm even questioning that. It's in very nice shape other than some decal wear and just the usual aging. I don't think the past owners used it much.
I really want to buy new or newer but the floor plan is rare. The model I'm looking at is in my city and I've been considering driving a long ways to find one. So, this one does have some appeal.... but 6 years is A LOT on a trailer IMO.
Anyway, I'm thinking a 33K MSRP TT should have been had for 25K at the most. In 6 years I'd have to think the depreciation would put it down close to 15K? I'd likely just pay cash so it's not like I'm trying to get some monthly payment. I just don't want to overpay and lose a bunch of $$ the day I buy it.
The model in question is Keystone Outback if it matters.
You are spot on as far as the financials go.
The intangible is the floorplan. Buying used, and wanting a certain TT complicates things. They are not making any more 2010s in that model, so you may have to pay a premium to get one..... Worse is that used units conditions will vary a lot. You may let this one get away only to find that the next several ones like it you see are in much worse shape.
And the right floorplan for YOU,,, is important. Buying something that you don't really want will remind you of what you COULD have had every time you use it.
If it was me, I would drive as hard a bargain as I could.... Then buy it for whatever it took.
6 years from now, the price won't be all that important in the mirror.
But that is me... I decide what I want, then do the best I can to get it. Life is to short to settle for less.
The only decision that matters here is yours.
Just how bad do you want this particular TT?
