Budget

You probably have an idea on how much you want to spend on your new camper, and if you don’t, establish one! The last thing you’ll want to do is walk onto the lot not doing any research into what you can afford. Try to be a little flexible on this though. You don’t want to establish a hard number, making the selection of campers available too narrow, but you also don’t want to be so flexible that you overspend. If you’re leaning toward something of a bigger size, know that things are probably going to be a little more expensive. Even though it sounds limiting, deciding on a budget beforehand will make your time at the dealership faster, and it often helps guide you to the best camper for your price range.
 

Consider Weight

Buying a new camper is a big enough investment in itself, so you don’t want to have to buy a whole new tow vehicle just to haul it. Instead, figure out what your current vehicle’s maximum weight capacity is. If you already have a full-sized pickup truck, you can probably tow even the heaviest of campers. If you have something a little smaller, you’ll have to compromise on size. No matter what kind of tow vehicle you have, check your owner’s manual for the maximum tow capacity and decide how heavy of a camper you can get.
