How to Buy the Perfect Used RV


Are you ready to commit to purchasing a recreational vehicle? It’s a big decision for most families, and Sunset Camping Center in Hickory, North Carolina, is here to help you make the best decision when it comes to purchasing a used RV.

Do Your Homework

Begin your research by looking into what is available in your area. Start by shopping locally online, or visit a nearby dealership. Check out a manufacturer’s website to get a complete profile of the RV models you are interested in. Have a checklist and cross off your needs and wants so that you can decide if you have landed on the perfect model, or if you need to keep looking. Your first choice might not always be your best choice, so take some time and do your homework to find a model that fits all of your needs.

Set a Budget

Knowing how much you want to spend will help you plan out your purchase. Setting expectations on how much you can afford prevents disappointment. Many buyers consider used campers because of the largely advantageous cost factor. New models quickly lose value in a matter of months, while used inventory tends to maintain its value over time. Other costs to consider in your overall budget are maintenance, repair, insurance, and registration fees. 

Inspect for Water Damage

Before you commit to your purchase, carefully examine the floors and ceilings of the camper you want to buy for water damage. With moisture comes mold and mildew, which are detrimental to the RV’s structure. Your nose can be a helpful inspection tool as well. Even when everything looks perfect, you can still sniff out hidden mildew problems, so pay attention!

Ask for Paperwork

The last important step before deciding whether or not you would like to go through with a purchase is inspecting the RV’s documentation, including maintenance records. Ask the private seller or dealer for the paperwork so you can read through the vehicle’s accident history, see when and how it was maintained, and learn about parts you might need to replace in the near future. 

Used RVs are truly a good starting point for anyone considering recreational vehicle travel, and shopping with reputable dealers with knowledgeable staff like Sunset Camping Center will give you a better experience than making this important decision alone.
