If I buy another unit I would look at used first and I am the type of person that likes to buy new but the price on low mileage used units is a lot less then new.
I agree that a lightly used motorhome can be a great deal. We went that route with our first RV, a small Class C, and saved a ton. After a few years, about 20,000 miles, and lots of great trips, we sold it and got most of the cost back. If the right used Axis came up, I'd consider used again.



To the OP's question regarding low inventory of large Class As, I wonder if shifting trends towards smaller motorhomes isn't affecting dealer business practices. Recent reports for November sales indicate that Class A volume was down compared to November 2015, while Class Cs were up and Class Bs up even more for same time period. As I recall, 2016 year-to-date (through November) Class A volume was still positive but trend was slowing.
