My name is Jon and I am new to this forum. I have never owned a RV, but I am looking to buy one. I don't know anything about RVs, nor do I know anyone who does. I have searched the internet to get as much information as possible; I feel overwhelmed. I have been to every local dealership in my area. You are never going to believe what they told me? THEY sell the best RV on the market, perfect for me. As you can see, I need some help.
I would appreciate any general advice, suggestions, or comments you might have. Also, any brands or models to consider would be a great help.
I know much of purchasing an RV is based upon preferences and situations. Below I listed both:
1. The RV will be my full-time home.
2. The RV will be put in a park (I am not traveling in it).
3. I will pay for someone else to move the RV.
4. I would like a new RV.
5. I prefer the fiberglass siding.
6. I seem to prefer the layout of 5th wheels (although travel trailers are fine). I looked at park models, not for me.
7. My budget is $40,000.
8. I am afraid of wood framing.
9. I prefer 20' to 30' feet.
10. I am most interested in quality construction that will last, as opposed to fancy options.
11. I live in central Texas, so the climate is generally mild in the winters and hot in the summers.
12. So far my favorite has been the Heartland Sundance 5th Wheel (any opinions).
I wasn't sure where to post this, so I posted it the "Trailers & Fifthwheels" and "fulltiming" sections.
Thanks for all of you help in advance. I am excited to hear from each of you.
