Perhaps the most important aspect of buying a new Dutchmen RV is working with a reputable dealer. Every major city has at least one RV dealer that offers new Dutchmen travel trailers for sale at prices to suit every budget. You can use the search feature on our main page to locate the Dutchmen dealer nearest you or to request information. The dealer's knowledgeable sales staff can answer all the questions you have about buying a new Dutchmen RV. They'll also coach you on how to tow a travel trailer. In fact, you can rely on the highly trained staff at your RV dealership to help you with all aspects of buying a new Dutchmen travel trailer or fifth wheel.
Before you start shopping for a new Dutchmen travel trailer, you need to determine what type of RV is right for you. Recreational vehicles basically fall into two categories: self-propelled and towable. Dutchmen makes conventional travel trailers and fifth wheels. You can get information on all RV types simply by visiting RV dealers and looking at a lot of units. You can also log on to industry websites, such as RVIA.org, or follow these links in order to help decide which type of RV is right for you.
Visiting RV dealerships will not only help you get a good understanding of what's involved with owning a motorhome or travel trailer, but you'll also get a good idea of prices. Budget is a major consideration when it comes to buying a new RV. Experts recommend that you consider how often you'll be using your new RV when you create your budget. As a rule of thumb, the more often you'll use it, the more you should consider spending. It doesn't make sense to spend top dollar on an RV if you're only planning to use it once or twice a year. Because Dutchmen makes such a wide variety of travel trailers, you can be sure to find one that fits your budget.
When shopping, ask your sales person about the "total cost of ownership" for specific units. This figure will include items like sales tax, registration, rough insurance costs, expected routine maintenance costs, and so on. Also, don't forget to factor in the cost of storage if you're unable to store your new motorhome or travel trailer at home. If you're going to need to purchase a new tow vehicle, don't forget to factor that cost in to the total price of a travel trailer.
Once you've narrowed your choice to a handful of models, start looking at individual units with an eye for livability. Does the floor plan accommodate your needs? Is the galley large enough? Is the bed comfortable? Can you close the door when you're inside the bathroom? Can you fit comfortably inside the shower?
You should be able to find a Dutchmen trailer that meets your personal livability test. Dutchmen travel trailers feature a wide array of floor plans and amenities. In fact, Dutchmen's fifth wheels contain standard features that are considered upgrades by other brands. Specifically, compare the interior storage space of a Dutchmen to other brands. Consider how much gear you'll be taking with you, from pots and pans to extra clothes, and be sure your first-choice model has enough room to store it all.
Finally, you should always spend the night in your chosen RV before buying it. This is standard practice in the RV industry, so don't be shy about asking your dealer about doing so. After all, buying a new motorhome or travel trailer is a major investment, and you'll be spending a lot of time living in your new RV. Taking it for a "test sleep" before buying is good insurance.
Buying a new RV can be a wonderful experience. Just remember to work with a reputable dealer in your local area, do your own research on RV types, and perform a rigorous livability analysis on your top three models. If you do, you're certain to discover a new Dutchmen that will meet your RVing needs for years to come.
