Used RVs: What’s the Benefit of Purchasing Secondhand?

Used RVs are making a comeback after years and years of overzealous newbies looking to buy the newest model with the biggest and the best of everything. For a while there it almost seemed like we were all simply out to spend as much money as we could. But most of us have our heads screwed on straight now and are not simply looking to drop a lot of cash on the most expensive recreational vehicle.

And most of us are back to considering the fact that you can get a lot more for your money with used RVs. The used RVs on the lot offer all the same amenities and all the same vehicles at a drastically lower cost. Driving a new recreational vehicle off the lot means no driving history and no wear and tear. But these are small bonuses in comparison to the price tag that goes with the assurance.

This is particularly true when new and veteran RV buyers consider the fact that when purchasing used RVs from a reputable dealership all inventory is carefully and thoroughly examined and kept in peak working condition. Purchasing secondhand in the RV industry isn’t just one more option; it’s the smartest option. It’s the option that will mean getting the most vehicle for the least amount of money.

Tips for getting the Secondhand or Used RVs You Dream of:

  1. Research first. Know what you are looking for before you ask for it. Don’t just wander onto a recreational vehicle lot and say you want to buy one of their used RVs. Get online and discover what kind of RV you are looking for: Class A, Class C, Fifth Wheel, etc. Find out what the popular amenities are and which ones are the most important to you: televisions, grills, full stove/oven, master bedroom, etc.
  2. Know your price range. Don’t simply be aware of the what the average price tag is on the RVs you are considering, know your own personal price tag. There’s nothing worse than finding the RV you want, purchasing it and then discovering that there isn’t enough money left over in your budget to travel. That’s the point, isn’t it? Make sure you have your secondhand RV purchase budget worked out in a way that will suit you for the long run.
  3. Know your basics. How many people will be traveling with you? Will you most likely be traveling long distances or short distances? Will you be pulling a smaller vehicle behind you or will you be pulling your RV behind a large vehicle? Don’t leave these things up to chance. Know your set up before you buy a vehicle.

Purchasing secondhand from a reputable dealer can be the most financially advantageous way to get your hands on a recreational vehicle for your own traveling purposes. But the best way to get exactly what you want at a smokin’ price is to know what you want and what you want to pay for it before you start shopping seriously.
