If you buy an RV, don't forget to factor in the sales tax. Buy a $50,000 RV in Texas, for example, and you'll pay a levy of 6.25%, or $3,125. Also check to see if your state and county impose an annual tax on personal property, including RVs.
This will allow you to decide which RV provides you with the best value. The link to download a spreadsheet is at the end. The total cost of ownership of a 3 year old, used, RV is approximately half of the cost of owning a new RV. Most 3 year old RVs have a lot more value than half of the cost of a new RV. This argues that if one is concerned about ownership cost, you should seriously consider buying a previously loved RV. The total cost of ownership will be about half what driving off the lot in a new rig will cost.
