If you’ve decided you want to purchase an RV but are unsure whether to buy a new or a repossessed RV, the best thing to do is compare the two and decide which is right for you.

Price. The biggest difference between a new or repo RV is price. As soon as a new RV is driven off the lot, it loses 30% of its value and then an additional 10-20% in the next couple years. Frequently RVs at used dealerships were purchased by the dealers at auction. They still provide a substantial savings over new ones, but buying a repossessed RV at auction yourself is even cheaper. Banks are interested in getting the RVs off their records as quickly as possible not making a profit, so you can buy quality RVs at low prices.

The car has become a necessity for most people and buying used cars has become more and more popular in recent times. But which individuals choose to buy the used cars? Well the answer is just about everyone.

Some of the major purchasers of used cars are car dealers who accept used cars as trade-ins when a customer purchases a new car. You will therefore see most car lots today having areas for new cars and areas for used cars. As a rule, nearly all car dealers will only sell used cars that are up to a certain age only with the rest being sold off at auction.
