Toy Hauler Blue Book Value

When you’re ready to buy a Toy Hauler, you’ll need to establish the blue book value. First, start with your budget. Determine the top dollar you can afford for your toy hauler. Take into consideration registration, license, insurance expenses. If the toy hauler is located at a distance from you, take into consideration the expense of transporting it.

Work backwards from your budget total, subtracting all possible expenses to arrive at your budget. With your budget ready, move to the second step to establish the blue book value of the toy hauler you have in mind. Make a list of everything you’d like to have in a toy hauler, such as the capacity in the cargo area, overall weight loaded, the age, the condition of the toy hauler, and the features of the camper portion. Rank these items in order of importance. It’s also important to check the tow vehicle for specifications regarding towing.

A strong word of caution when purchasing a toy hauler, or any recreational vehicle: Make sure the person or business selling the toy hauler or other recreational vehicle has the legal right to sell it, and that you will be able to obtain clear title! Can’t stress this enough! If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is! Also, be prepared to take posession when you purchase it!!! Too many sad stories these days about folks buying a trailer or camper, and not ready to take posession right away and leaving it with the dealer. Then if the dealer goes out of business you may have a very difficult time gaining posession of your camper or trailer. So – be prepared to take posession when you pay, even if you only tow it to your own storage location! Buyer Beware!
