The joy of recreational vehicle ownership hasn't been dimmed by


rising gas prices. As late as August of 2005 recreational


vehicle sales were seeing only a very small affect of rising gas


prices. Sales of recreational vehicles in 2004 were the highest


see in twenty five years. The popularity of recreational


vehicles doesn't seem to be waining at all. In fact, there is an


RV and MV (Manufactured Vehicle) hall of fame located in Elkhart


Indiana.





Today's motor homes or recreational vehicles have all the


comforts of home, and then some. With luxury leather recliners,


granite floors, washers and dryers, plasma TV's and looks of


professionally designed spaces recreational vehicles are a


stylish and comfortable home away from home.





There are several different types of vehicles considered "RV's".


The first is a truck camper which is a unit affixed to the bed


or chassis of a pickup truck. Then there is the folding camping


trailer, or pop-up trailer. A travel trailer is a unit that is


towed by another vehicle. A fifth wheel travel trailer is


designed to be towed by a pickup truck. A motor home or what is


frequently called a Winnebago which resembles a bus.





The process of purchasing a new recreational vehicle is somewhat


like purchasing a new car. A recreational vehicle dealer will


sometimes take advantage of an uniformed customer. There are


huge markups on recreational vehicles by all dealers. The only


way to come out with a fair deal is to do your homework before


you buy.





There are several fixed prices when you are looking at new


recreational vehicles. The dealer price, the taxes and any motor


vehicle fees. As with a car, the only option left for the dealer


is to play with the profit margin. As recreational vehicle


dealers sell way less than car dealers do they must make a much


higher profit margin per vehicle. As it is widely known that


used recreational vehicles have a huge depreciation you don't


want to overpay for your vehicle.
