new vs preowned

Yahoo Message Number: 9774
Hi all, we have owned several coaches, some preowned, some new. We feel that if you buy right and sell while your coach is still in vogue you do not get hurt as badly. I know that a lot of owners do not believe in extended warranties. I feel the oposite for this reason: I ALWAYS sell our coach myself. If you read your warranty cards it is stated original owner. A buyer is willing to buy used with a warranty moreso than without. We make 40k to 60k over trade-in value.
We get a fair price that way.

I just want to add a couple of points. We usually have lots of things to fix and so by the time we sell all is working well. The CC family is pretty small, so we trade the rig if there are issues we can not fix.
Also, Dale keeps our vehicles immaculate so he is proud to show it when we sell. We buy, fix it up, go to a rally and end up buying again, go figure! This 05 is an awesome rig. Our C13 is averaging 9.5 and we love the quad slides. Just know it ll probably be for sale later with a warranty! Hollicks

Hi Candace and Dale

I believe you when you say you take good care of your RV. You seem like people that take pride in who you are and what represents who you are.
I did call Mike and he had his partner call me. We are trying to find a fit.
Please call me if you ever want to sell your RV, I believe I could trust that it would be a good coach.

i agree "ms candy" but i would like to add a very old saying in all sales and it goes like this you only worry about price once the rest of the time it is about quilty next thing is how many of you talk about what you payed for milk last time you went to the store and as far as what CC makes up the coach and what the dealer sells it for makes no difference it is called free trade and with out it none of us would have coaches of the freedom we have every company has the right to make a profit well all have a great day

I am sorry, I did not understand your message. The mfg warranties state that the coverage is limited to the original owner on almost all components including a CAT engine. So I always purchase an extended warranty that is transferable to a subsequent owner. What does that have to do with freedom of the mfger? I guess I missed your point, please clarify.

Dale:

I have been wrestling with the extended warranty issue. Is there any particular extended warranty you prefer?

Thanks

Chuck, Yes, there is one person I buy from because in all of my research he is the least expensive with the best policy. I will have to look it up in my files and get back to you with his name and number. I have received several other emails requesting the same information. The reason I like this particular policy is because it cover "normal wear and tear" which most policies do not and because it is transferable to a new owner for a small fee. The new owner is able to acquire the policy and the remainder of the years and mileage left on the policy. Candace Hollick 05 Affinity #6370

Thank you for the information. I just got your follow on email. I'll check it out.
By-the-way, congratulations on your 05 Affinity. They are beautiful coaches. I can't believe how much time we spent on the Magna and Affinity at the Tucson rally. Came very close to doing what you and Dale did. I'm envious.
