Why not to buy used.
I know there are MANY on her who say. NEVER buy new, always buy used RVs. Myself. I always buy new, and here is an example why. This week we were camping beside a man who had just bought a used 201...

the wife and i just bought our first TT
we bought new
we did that for a few reasons
because we wanted a new one and not a used one was the biggest factor
yes we know it depreciated as soon as we took delivery of it
we didnt want a used one. didnt like the idea of sleeping on a bed that some else has done who knows what in it.
This reason for buying new amazes me every time it comes up and it comes up in every one of these new vs. used threads
You do know that they sell mattresses separately from a motor home, right?
They also sell new toilet seats for about $10.
we are fully aware of that.
but like i said,its our money and we will pend it as we see fit.
now if you were offering to buy me a travel trailer.well then i would let you buy me a used one if thats what you wanted to do.
ive worked hard for the last 40 years,and will continue to do so until i retire.
i like to buy new because technology changes, and i like technology.
and then theres the fact that a 5-10 year old TT wouldnt looks as nice (to us) behind our brand new truck.
kills me how so many people who think used is the only way to go,like to tell others how to spend their money.
trust me,i wont belittle any one for buying used vs new. its your money so spend it as you see fit.
