Here are a few tips for buying a Travel Trailer
- Hang out in the trailer before you buy it. The more time you spend, the better. A Travel Trailer is a significant investment, and you want to make sure it's a good fit for you.
- Make sure your vehicle can tow the trailer fully loaded.
- Take a look at a Travel Trailer of the same made and model 5 or 10 years old. How did it age?
- Don't pay MSRP. Many RV's are available at a 30% discount if you do your research!
- If you are buying used, check for water damage and leaks.
- Make sure you like the floor plan. Most first time buyers will trade their Travel Trailer in within two years because the floor plan didn't work for them.
- Rent a few before buying. Check out different manufacturer models and floor plans. This is the easiest way to know which Travel Trailer is right for you!
As always, spend the money and have a professional inspect your purchase before you sign on the dotted line.
You may save yourself a bunch of trouble down the road.
