Is a Used RV Right For You?

On the fence about buying a Used RV? While choosing to shop for a used model rather than a new one can be risky, there are plenty of perks that come with owning a used RV. To discover if a used model is the right fit for you, we recommend checking out our article below.

You’re New to RV Ownership

If you’re planning on buying your first-ever RV, we strongly recommend purchasing a used model. Many first-time buyers don’t know exactly what they’re looking for in a new RV, and often end up trading in their first models for an upgrade after just a few years. Some buyers learn they’re not cut out for RV ownership and want to resell their RVs after just a couple of years. Regardless of whether you upgrade or sell your first RV, you’ll find a used model will depreciate at a much slower rate than a new one—saving you thousands of dollars on your initial investment.

You’re on a Tight Budget

Looking for a quality RV on a shoestring budget? While you won’t have much luck on the showroom floor, the used sales lot will offer a variety of top-shelf models at an incredibly low price. However, the sticker price isn’t the only way a used RV can save you money. The cost of parts and insurance for a used RV should also be more affordable, and you can even find used models with leftover warranties to help you save on maintenance and upkeep.
