Used RVs For Sale in Pueblo, CO

Used Camper Buying Guide

Shopping for a recreational vehicle can be a daunting task, but one way you can save yourself a lot of money right off the bat is to buy a used RV instead of buying new. Used campers hold their value well and you’ll have a wealth of options to choose from, so you’re sure to find something that suits your needs.

Wondering what shopping for a used RV entails? Zabukovic RV in Pueblo is proud to be your Colorado used camper dealer. Read on to learn more about what you should consider when buying a used RV.
 

Do Some Research

First, you should take the time to do some research so you can figure out what your local options are. Dealers like us have a great inventory of used RVs in many styles and brands, so it’s important to think about what type of RV you want. Towable? Self-contained? Do you need sleeping space for two people or ten people? What features do you want? Look online and tour dealer lots to see what’s available.
 

Develop a Budget

Your next step is to look at your finances and develop a budget to determine how much you can realistically afford to spend on a used RV. Don’t forget that you aren’t just forking out cash for the RV itself; you’ve also got to consider storage needs, maintenance costs, and insurance fees. Make sure you’re prepared for everything.
 

Ask for Vehicle History

When looking into a particular used model, you should get the full vehicle history from the dealer or previous owner. A reputable dealer like Zabukovic RV or an upstanding private seller will be more than happy to provide you with maintenance records and repair history so you can fully understand how long the RV was used, what parts were replaced, and what maintenance was performed. Anyone who won’t give you this information shouldn’t be trusted.
 

Perform an Inspection

Finally, once you’ve landed on a model you like and you’ve got the history, you’ll want to do a walkthrough of the interior and exterior to check the condition of the used RV yourself. You’re looking for signs of water damage, primarily, which can include stains on the ceiling or mold and mildew. Test appliances, make sure slide-outs are functional, and try the engine if it’s a self-contained RV. If you like, you can even pay a professional to do an inspection for you.
