Outside looks nice, but $80k for a used trailer? No way would I pay that.

Thats a lot of money to spend on a camper that will eventually be worth $0.00. Good luck with your decision and happy shopping.

It's crazy how many of the drivable coaches are cheaper than the travel trailers that you can pull.

Thats a lot of money to spend on a camper that will eventually be worth $0.00. Good luck with your decision and happy shopping. The investment for this purchase is to: 1) allow my wife who is recovering from a bone marrow transplant be able to attend the baseball & softball tournaments our kids are involved in. 2) save money on hotels and eating out when traveling to baseball & softball tournaments. I'll have this trailer for at least 7 years. After that kids are out of high school. Then we would get rid of it all together or go with something else.

And just like everything else, the price of these things have boomed! Last week there was a 1 used trailer on the lot. This was on Sunday. Spoke with the sales guy Monday morning and the used trailer ($89k) was sold. And that trailer I think was a 2018.

You got an f450/550? That’s looks like a 18000-20000 pound trailer with triple axles. Gonna need a class A license was well.

You can find many trailers under $40k that will do the same thing.

Grand Design makes great TTs. You really need to have it hooked up to water/sewer and power to check everything. A friend just purchased a Grand Design. The seller paid $150,000 a couple of years ago. He got it for less than $80,000. I looks new.
