We want to purchase a camper...but where do we start?

Years ago my wife and I had reached a point in our lives were we wanted to "upgrade" our camping lifestyle and be more comfortable when we did decide to head to the outdoors.  In reality there were other factors that were taken into consideration which helped with us finally making the ultimate decision that it was time to invest in a camper and enjoy our family a bit more comfortably, however there was one major problem, we didn't know where to start.

As we all know, the internet makes it easier and easier for us to find things such as cars, houses, rentals, and everything else imaginable under the sun.  However you can't always get all the information needed to make an informed decision, and ultimately you could be throwing money down the drain if you aren't savvy enough to ask the right questions, look for the right deal, and know your limitations.

This blog will help you in knowing what to look for when you are ready to financially commit to an investment such as a camper, this blog will be separated into three sections which will include what to look for depending on your budget - yes it's imperative to know how much you are willing to spend.  Next we will talk about what your limitations will be regarding towing and what are some of the red flags to look for.  And finally, once we know what camper and vehicle to use, we will give tips and ideas as to what to look for when purchasing the camper itself at the lot.

Our experience has taken us from being too trustworthy with sales people and we have ultimately learned our lessons as to what to ask and what to ignore.  There are lots of available options out there, a buyer can decide to go new or used depending on their preference, but ultimately it is dependent on their budget.  Along with the money talk, individuals also have to be mindful as to what their likes and wants will be as options in camper models and amenities are at times limitless in the real world.

Ultimately the goal is to get you informed with as much information as possible in order for you to walk in confidently any store, dealer, or seller and ask the right questions with confidence and not feel lost as we certainly did all those years ago.

To get an idea there are local sellers/dealers in the Lincoln and Omaha area who specialize in RV's such as Leach Camper Sales, Apache Camper Sales, Camping World of Omaha/Council Bluffs, and AC Nelsen to name a few that you can start taking a look at and get an idea of what is out there at this very moment.
