When you've got a good idea of the class of RV you're interested in and your price
range, it's time to turn to the classifieds and start narrowing the field.
Once you've identified several prospects by year, make and model, it's time to get
some unbiased pricing help. A good place to start is the NADA web site, http://nadaguides.com. This site allows you to enter information
about the RV your considering and then gives you a low retail and average retail
price for that vehicle. (Keep in mind, however, that these are guidelines only.
The actual price will vary up or down depending on overall condition, mileage and
accessories.)
Other options for pricing help are the Kelly Blue Book's Motor Home and the Travel
Trailer Guides and the Travel Trailer Guide, which covers used travel trailers,
fifth wheels and folding trailers. Both guides should be available at your local
library.
