Is this a decent price for this trailer? $16,200


Hi Fellow Nomads,

I have a friend who wants to buy a trailer and pull it down to Baja Sur and live on our lot for 6 months...basically he wants to 'check out'. I have no idea about trailers and was wondering for those who do have an inkling if you think this is a decent price for the one described below?

He hasn't decided yet so if anyone has a trailer for sale similar to this one let me know. He would be coming from Bay Area, CA and could pick it up anywhere on the way down.

Thanks,
pacside


$16,200

2004 Wilderness 250RKS 26'X 8'

This trailer is literally "like new". It has been used three times. There is an illness in the family and the trailer has to go. Any serious offer will be considered.

Some of the features include:

Full kitchen (Microwave, stove top, fridge, freezer, sink)
6 Gal water heater
Potable Water tank w/heater
Comfortable common area w/ power slide-out
Full bath (sink, toilet, tub/shower)
Full seperate bedroom (Queen bed)
Central Heat and AC w/ thermostat
External shower
Surround sound speakers w/ front and rear selector switch
Scissor Stabilizer Jacks
17' Awning
2 access doors (Kitchen and Bedroom)

that is expensive.... there are many trailers for sale in BCS ... where is he headed ?... put some ads out and save a thousand miles of driving with one eye on the rearview mirrow... many folks have pulled trailers down that they don't want to haul back... I got a trailer in BCS for less than 1/2 what it would have cost in San Diego.. patientce pays large dividends..

Well that sounds like that would be much easier...on the driving and pocketbook. Can you let me know the brand name and year? You can U2U me if you want. Also curious why you want to sell it....is this what you guys stayed in when you were building?

thanks,
pacside

We'd be all over Bob and Susan's offer in a heart beat had we not already picked one up Baja side late June.

That is a great deal. Maybe we need a guest trailer......dern would kill me.

That is extremely expensive for a Wilderness Trailer especially 2004, These trailers are basically weekenders, they are not built for the long hauling and living, you need more the full timer trailer.
Bob and Susan has a sweet deal, jump on it.

2004 wilderness


thats is alot of money for a 2004 wilderness

here is the current NADA guide

wholesale $7920.00
retail $10,500.00

also a wilderness is not top of the line trailer,, its a nice one.
I remember a trip from hell pulling a 25' terry 5th wheel down baja,, I lost every spring on the thing, If he does buy the trailer,, you need to start of really new and top of the line tires, and take the trailer in to a shop that will beaf up the axels and springs,, I am talking fromn experience,, I had to leave my 5th wheel in Mulege as I was not able to go any further,, I had to have a RV repair guy and crew come from yuma to get it,, and coming back they lost about 3 springs,, but they had a crew with them and spare springs

way too expensive for such a trailer. you can get a good one down here for much less, though some people still count on the scarcity factor and try to get more. I think in the USA that those things, especially with gas prices like they are, would be much less, at least under blue book. check Craig's List. I saw a 26', little use and slide outs, 2006 for 5500 in Pto Chivato about three months ago.



reality\'s never been of much use out here...

Friend decided to not proceed with trailer purchase. Thanks for the info.

Although Bob and Susan's is a good deal from my research.

Nada Guide shows retail on the 04 Wilderness, 250RKS at $7600 to $9100. The $16,000 price looks alittle steep.:barf:
