What Do I Do????

Postby mitch5252 » Fri Feb 28, 2014 10:28 am

..

This is available in northern Indiana.
I seriously don't know what to do.
Do I just keep what I have (there is absolutely nothing wrong with it)?
Do I try and negotiate off this price ($15,700)?
They only offered $3,300 on my Fun Finder X-160.
I told her I would sell it on my own at that price.
She said she knows it's worth more, but that's the most they could give me.

HELP!

Two thoughts ...

You're still looking. That says to me that you're open to getting something else, probably bigger.

If it's got what you want (more space), I'd do it. I have NEVER been sorry for upgrading, and I've done it 4 times. :)

Looks like the weight is okay for your truck. It sits pretty high, so make sure you get it adjusted so that your truck doesn't ride high in the front and your trailer is level when pulling it (I'm speaking from personal, frustrating experience).

If you own the little trailer outright you can take your time to sell it. I wouldn't trade at that price, either.

Go for it, Mitch. I really don't think you'll be sorry.

I'd vote if you really want it, get it!

If you don't sell the other one you could always add another set of hook ups and use it as a guest house :lol:

At least 25% off MSRP. From what I've heard, you will always get more for your current RV if you sell it yourself. And, if you want the new one, get it and enjoy!!

GET IT! The things that I see right offhand that your little Fun Finder doesn't have, that this one does, is a bigger fridge/freezer, convection microwave, dinette & separate bed, electric awning, electric tongue jack.

No electric tongue jack on new one, or did I miss something?

I upgraded my microwave to convection on current trailer.
I love the convection part.
Actually use convection more than regular microwave.

No, it's not "highighted" in yellow, nor is it highlighted, but it is an option you can get when you order it.

What the heck is an electric tongue jack??? Who's Jack?
When I recently traded my RT in for a LTV, I told them what I wanted to pay each month for the financing, and it was up to them to make it work. Whether it was a price reduction or higher trade-in value I didn't care -

:lol: :lol: :lol: Judi, an electric tongue jack raises and lowers the front of the trailer so that you can hitch it to the truck. The one on her MM now, is a hand crank.

Mitch, an electric tongue jack is totally worth it. Get an Atwood. Don't let them sell you an LPI (I think that's the brand).

(actually it's named the same as a jack you use on your vehicle to change tires, etc.)

Looks like a nice bright little trailer! Perfect sized with everything you need!
