What is the most economical way?
Below you will find a youtube video of our first travel trailer, a 2018 Heartland Pioneer. We originally purchased it for a specific 3 month job that we were awarded. After we did the math, we realized it would be cheaper to buy a travel trailer than to rent a hotel room in Pennsylvania for 3 months. So two weeks before we had to leave we started looking for a Travel Trailer. We ended up going to the place with the biggest selection. However, I will not name the store because I don’t want to give them any free advertising. We found a small RV (Heartland travel trailer). Did all the paperwork for it and we were supposed to do a walk through and pick it up the next day.
The Horror Of Purchasing a RV From (will not name the store)!!!
We arrived at the RV Store and finished signing the rest of the paperwork. They took us out to do the walk through. That is when we realized that they had wrecked our Heartland travel trailer in the parking lot. The techs were thring to hide that fact! So of course, we told them we were not buying that RV. Then they offered to let us purchase a bigger one because of their mistake. So instead of a 19 foot travel trailer we ended up with a 21 foot RV travel trailer. They were going to try and sell us a wrecked travel trailer for a new one!!!! This RV store is well known, infect it is usually the 1st place most people go to buy a RV. So be very careful where and who you chose to buy a RV from. To help you can click here to join our newsletter.
Did we save money?
We left a week after we bought the 2018 Heartland Pioneer travel trailer. The job ended up being almost 6 months, so we did save quite a bit of money on room rent by purchasing the travel trailer. We originally intended to sell it as soon as we got home; however, due to the hard freeze back home that year, we had damage to our tiny house, so we ended up living in the 21 foot RV until we made up our mind on what we were going to do about our home.
