Used Hybrid Value
Hi all,
We are getting ready to make the leap from our class B to a towable. One of the options we are considering is getting a used trailer first to determine exactly what we need/want and then buying new.
We found a small (17') coachmen apex hybrid model and really like the layout but the listed prices at dealers seem to be close to the cost of new. Is this common practice by dealers (to list very high and bargain or convince people to buy new I mean)?
The units I've seen locally are from 2013 and 2011 and listed at $15,000 which is just a little below what they could have been purchased for new in those years.
I had thought the price would be around 8K for the 2013 and 6.5k for the 2011 based on my research.
Thanks for any thoughts you may have, as a first time buyer, processing all of the necessary information is a little overwhelming.
