If you are currently shopping for a RV and plan to buy one this year, there are important things to consider when making your final decision. Surprisingly, the price is not one of them. In fact, it could be a mistake to do so.

Keep these five key considerations in mind when choosing your RV.

Type of RV

What type of RV do you need? Is it for a solo or couple trip? Is it for your family of four? Do you plan to stay put or keep travelling over a period of time? The answers to these questions will determine what type of RV you should be shopping for to suit your needs and lifestyle. If you are new to RVing, it is recommended to rent different types to try and determine what works best.

Size

Size is very important when it comes to RVing and bigger is not always better. Your recreational vehicle should be large enough to make you feel comfortable while being small enough to be maneuverable. The size is also a determining factor when it comes to deciding where you will store your RV.

Features

RVs come with numerous and different features. You can’t have all of them, so you should determine what features are essential for your wellbeing and personal enjoyment. Do you need bunk beds for your children, or do you consider a second bathroom more necessary? The features you wish to have in your RV are another key consideration.

Age of the RV

Are you shopping for a new or used RV? A new RV is not necessarily better. There are many well-maintained older RVs with nice features available on the market. Keep in mind that there are campgrounds that will only accept newer RVs (less than 10 years old) into their parks. The important thing is to look for the right type, size and features for your needs.

Manufacturer

The last but not the least thing to consider when shopping for a RV is the brand and reputation of manufacturers. It is important to do your research, read reviews and talk to an RV expert to learn about the advantages of manufacturers.
