Purchase Price advice on 2 yr old New TT
I've run into a 'deal' I'm seriously considering. A lot has a 2012 New (as I assume unused) TT. MSRP is ~$23.5K, asking was >$18K and he is willing to take ~$13K with my pup trade in (about $1,500)....

The most important question you can ask is...has anyone slept in this unit?
The vehicle can be new, never registered but...he could have lent it out.
We got caught, unit was new never registered. Looked good. After we took ownership, paid for it we brought it home. As I was cleaning it to load it up I found an onion, cheese that was smeared and kleenex stuffed behind mattress.
We loved the trailer. After we talked to the dealer he said it was never registered, it was new. I asked him directly....has anyone slept in it. We got a yes but to this day no apology. We insisted on brand new mattresses. Being new to this we were naive we figured we were stuck with it, he had the money. We will never trust the dealer again.
Question the dealer, check every inch and if your gut instinct is to walk
then run!
I don't think a one time use would be a deal breaker, however the fact they were dishonest would tarnish and could break the deal.
I would request,new mattresses,a new toilet or a refund. The dealer could swap those items from a truly unused RV if they liked.
