If you were looking at two RV's, both the same make/model, but one was 5 years old and the other brand new, then I see little or no benefit to buying used. The benefits are realized when you buy an older, high-end model coach, for the same amount that a new, entry level model costs.
Look at it this way, would you rather drive a well-maintained, 5-year old Mercedes SL650 or a brand new Chevy Cavalier?
For me, the older, high-end model is the better bet. But that's just me, YMMV. I accept that RV ownership means the windows will leak and the air conditioner will break on both RV's. So I prefer a higher-end, better appointed coach to work on.
