Buying first TT - New or Used?
Hello! We are a family of 5 with three small children (ages 7,6,2) and we are wanting to buy a travel trailer - doing alot of research - and wondering if we should buy new or used. New we are thinking...

My first response with 3 small children and a long ways to go before college and the expenses involved, never buy new, especially if you need to finance your purchase. I made that mistake in my younger years and now only buy what I can pay for in cash. Can also find some deals with cash in hand. Most items that need repair on rv's are the appliances and they are universal. Find a decent trailer and get a 3/4 ton you may want to upgrade at some time. Most do. Your kids will love camping in whatever you get. Just don't overdo it on your first. Craig's list is where I got mine. 97 Excel 5r 28 ft for $6500 two years ago and it is a gem. It can be done.. Good Luck
