    I like off road & hybrids offroad/tents. The old pop outs w/slide out & hybrids, & anything w/garage poss working design. Me 18ft min garage but most ppl just need to carry 4 wheelers or bikes.

    Class A is no brainer so long as it fits your needs length parking storing & not a daily or weekly rig your most likely 30ft+ 1/2 & 1/2 camping driving or just your " camping/fun " rig. Most ppl hve or will drive a quad cab 450 daily so that is what drives your choice.

    Good information however a dealer is going to sell at a price that they want for the unit. You will not be able to negotiate it lower especially nowadays 2021/2022

    tier 2 is 30ft real camper 6more ft of space & roof for panels & most likely a once a week driver max more like week up to 2 weeks sound option & any national park no bitching. Pull behinds over 30ft up to 36ft r tier 3 really towing & really camping & still 1 month any or almost any national park able.

    New travel trailers are almost the same price as used so I don’t see why I should buy used when they are similar in price. I’m looking for a travel trailer to buy instead of renting an apartment.

  • @jamesmerkel9442
    @jamesmerkel9442 4 роки тому

    So 24ft ish or Hybrid 2 axle is tier1 going forward safe & durable 2 yrs protected. A true 15yrs life span 6 camps of week per yr bottom end model.

  • @jamesmerkel9442
    @jamesmerkel9442 4 роки тому

    Tier 3 should b looking hopefully 3 axle or even 5th wheel much better choice.

      @jamesmerkel9442 4 роки тому

      Tier 5 is rock star 45ft ish max-ing out sky is the limit best of everything, your job is your mobile home Nascar etc why not double sinks, why not walk in closet, why not custom order jump off pnt from best model they make.

    when I Am God RV-ing will get simplier & better & more standarized, like 2yrs new warranty, & ever RV must hve a min of 2500 lbs of cargo that can b add min above All the normal req equipment package include.

    • @jamesmerkel9442
      @jamesmerkel9442 4 роки тому

      Even class B's need 2500 cargo min& this will reg better axles most likely no slides on this class. Engines & trans r under wt as well. Slike van class but just not "modern" RV able(batteries& solar& slides&extra stuff, your class C buddy). Most likely 450 right choice unless really short rig.

    Do the same hold true for Airstreams trailers as far as MSRP or 25%?

  • @jamesmerkel9442
    @jamesmerkel9442 4 роки тому

    single axle trailers should really b a thing of the past & 2 axles new min standard unless under 3k new empty wt. Even then not enough safety margin for Me & hard to get 2500 add cargo wt min on 1 axle. Rather all corps start going other way say hydrid 7k or 8k axles *2.

    Do you think 20-30 % still applies today with the high demand ?

    • @RVMasters
      @RVMasters  3 роки тому

      That’s a really good question. I don’t think so. I’m hearing about prices all over the place. Dealers are scrambling to buy used units and leadtime for orders is pretty long. There doesn’t seem to be a formula or consistency to values right now. I personally would not be buying one at this time. Good luck!

      I just got 26% off msrp tt. That is still available just search far and wide after you identify what you want. Local dealer offered 8% off and I walked away took my time located one at the price I wanted to pay.

      Jeff Woodard; then you need to look at the class B or B+. Leisure Travel Vans carry a great line as well as Pleasureway. Winnebago Navion is also great. There are also more budget friendly models out there.
