I hope you will not be doing it the way some of the people I have been meeting because they are learning they could have done a much better job.
With RV dealer service shop rates approaching and exceeding $100/hr you
and I both know you cannot afford to make unnecessary mistakes when purchasing your RV… Because it will cost you more of your hard earned money,
anywhere from hundreds of dollars to thousands of
dollars. As an RV technician I continue to meet people lamenting one thing after another about their new RV (new to them anyway). It doesn’t matter whether you’re buying new or used (buying new is not without risk either) there are certain things you as a consumer should be doing to minimize your risk when purchasing any type of RV, whether it is a motor home, 5th wheel, or travel trailer. If you are new to RV’ing any experienced RV’er will tell you
RV’s require a LOT OF ATTENTION. Therefore, a good inspection is imperative before you buy. It continues to astound me how often people continue to spend tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars not knowing and/or understanding what their buying. For example, people are buying RV’s that have:
My experience as an RV TECHNICIAN with a number of RV dealerships
has taught me a number of things. First, there are Basic Rules
to follow when purchasing an RV so here’s some FREE ADVICE.
Do not assume anything! You do not have to know ANYTHING about RV’s,
if something does not look right to you…
In addition, do not accept the patent answer from many RV salespeople and RV owners wanting to dump their RV on some unsuspecting schmuck, which is… "Oh that's just the way they are" or "All Rv's are like this." As I said, Check it out! HOW?
When you find something wrong be sure it is/or will be WHY? It’s simple! In any buying/selling negotiation the buyer has the POWER and
LEVERAGE in the negotiation process. However,
LEVERAGE in the negotiation process. However, you relinquish much of your POWER and LEVERAGE is as soon as you sign a contract or a check.
This means if you are buying from a dealer, do not sign anything or write a check until the problem is repaired to your satisfaction If you’re buying from an individual you either negotiate with the seller to have the problem repaired or
you determine what it will cost you to repair the problem and deduct this amount from the sellers asking price. This is all about saving you money.
Now I know what you are thinking! Manufacturers have warranties
so you are thinking when I buy new I’m covered. That’s true…to a point. When buying new you have a full warranty often up to three years
but let me ask you some questions. And during the RV season how long are you willing to be WITHOUT your RV? I bring up to you now because they’re the same questions these questions
I am getting from people who never thought about asking them earlier.
All of us want the same thing. We want to find a“good deal” and we want it
to be a “good deal”. There is only one way to accomplish this when purchasing an RV and that is to minimize your risk as much as possible.
If you are buying used there is only one thing you need to remember… In other words, everything previously stated takes on more importance.
This reminds me of a snowbird who took possession of a used motor home from a dealer in which he discovered during the walk thru (this is a buyers last chance to accept or reject the RV) the refrigerator was cooling down to only about 40 degrees. (this is not cold enough). In spite of knowing this he took possession anyway and moved in. Once he started using the refrigerator (putting food in it and opening and closing the doors) he soon discovered the
refrigerator was not cooling sufficiently. Now he had to return his home (it’s all he had to live in) to the dealer for the refrigerator to be repaired and secure a hotel room at his expense. Fortunately, he was dealing with a dealer who was willing to make things right because normally used RV’s come with NO WARRANTIES. The lesson here is hotel expenses and the great inconvenience of being forced out of his home could have been avoided
had he not been in such a hurry to take possession of his new motor home.
