No one can argue that recreational vehicles (RVs, also called campers) have made camping trips more enjoyable, secure, and comfortable for camping enthusiasts of all stripes. But that doesn’t mean that they’re cheap. If you’re looking for an RV and you want to stick to a budget, you should consider buying a used RV. There are a number of benefits that used RVs can provide, some of which we’ve outlined below.

Getting More Choices

The new RV market limits you to whatever has been released over the last year or so, which means you don’t have too many options. If you want a model that isn’t released any longer or you’re looking for something with vintage appeal, you’re going to find it on the used market. Used RVs could be anywhere from a few years to a few decades old, which gives you a great many more options!

Finding Aftermarket Features You Want

Sometimes, you want to modify or upgrade an RV, but it can be time-consuming and expensive to do so. Something great about used RVs is that they are often already modified by previous owners, so you may be able to locate a used camper that has the aftermarket features you want, including a custom paint job or shelving or different appliances.

Trying Things Out

Another great benefit of buying a used RV is that you can test the waters, so to speak, and determine what it is you really want in a camper. Maybe you start with a motorhome, but you end up deciding that you’d rather get a towable model. Perhaps you have a smaller camper, then you want something bigger to give yourself more space as your family expands. Whatever the reason, your used camper will be easier to pay off, so you can trade it in when it’s time to upgrade.
