I'd see Posnick about a new one, and maybe ask him if trading is worth while, Not sure if RV dealers operate the same as car dealers but when we bought the wifes car we were told by the salesman....

"I can make it look like I'm giving you $2000 for your trade, but honestly to us it's worth $1. It would end up at wholesale auction. It's in your best interests to try and sell your car private sale and then dump the money down onto the loan"

So we did..... $1800 for the car. RV's may be different but trade values usually suffer because as a dealer before they can re-sell they have to recondition which can cost them more than they can recover.

Darcy will let you know whats best..........

That is true bogger, dealer said suv worth around 7 grand sold it ourself and got 12 grand. Sell for couple grand less then book price and you still win over trading it in. Good luck.

Yup, I'm finding the same thing. I have a 31 foot Class C E-450 V10 Kustom Koach with 9,000 miles on it looking to trade it but everyone wants it for next to nothing and still a premium on a new class A.

Sell it your self and then go looking for a deal.
