When we first started looking at buying our first TT, we went and checked out a few at a local dealership. Junk. Dirty, worn out, abused, junk. Priced like gold bouillon.
As we looked farther and farther a field, we were only looking at new units, as I just didn't need another project. On one trip to a dealership, I had only been to previously once, we were looking at new units, and were unimpressed by both the quality and price.
The sales guy suggested we take a look at the only used unit they had left. Since we were already there, it wasn't going to hurt. But I didn't have high expectations.
That's the TT we currently own and enjoy. 5 years old, and I could tell the instant we walked in the door, it'd barely been used at all. Got a good price, and other than a few minor issues that I've fixed myself. We're happy with it.
But this is after a number of trips to a variety of dealerships, scouring the internet for reviews, used sales ads, visiting a RV show... Takes time. Not always a commodity people have lots of.
