Buying a New RV vs. Used

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when you’re purchasing a RV or Motorhome. The first major decision you’ll want to make is whether you want to buy a new RV or a used one. Here are a few pros and cons to help you make the right choice for your next coach:

Pros for Brand New

With a brand new RV you get a similar experience to purchasing a brand new car. Everything is in perfect condition, it smells brand new, and you can select from a number of different options to configure it the way you’d like. As well when you purchase a brand new RV you also get a manufacturers warranty for piece of mind.

Cons for Brand New

Once again, just like buying a new car, when you purchase a RV you have to take into consideration the depreciation the occurs once you drive it off the lot. Even the price itself is a reason to consider purchasing a used RV. Brand new RVs can be very expensive depending on the make and model.

Pros for Used

Buying a used RV is a great way to get out and enjoy the open road while only spending a fraction of the money that you would on a new one. With a used Motorhome you can take some of the money you saved by not buying a new one and use it to renovate the used RV. When you renovate a RV you can redo the cabinets, floors, and furniture to give your coach a whole new feel. You may even be able to make it meet your style more than a brand new one.

Cons for Used

With a used RV you may not have any factory warranty remaining. If you don’t have a full inspection there may be hidden problems that you were not aware of at the time of purchase. Before you renovate it, it may not be quite your style or taste.
