Advantage of buying new is that hopefully, the warranty will cover non-maintenance items for a year or so. Disadvantage is that with many companies, you are doing their quality control during that first year and finding all the things they should have caught during construction. I have talked to friends that bought new coaches in the $1/4-$1/2 million range and it was in the shop being repaired 25% of the time during their first year. That could REALLY play havoc with someone that was living in their coach. Some manufacturers have clauses in their warranties that give them an out if you are living in your coach full time. Obviously, they don't think their products will stand up to that amount of usage.
