I'm thinking about getting rid of my 5th and the truck thats mainly to pull it.

Ive looked at a few sites for listings and I think camping world does consignment but any ideas what works better?

I thought about trade in at Holiday world Houston where I got it but the smallest they have is still 20,000 and to big for my car to tow.

Craigslist, eBay, or rvtraderonline.com. The problem with CL is scammers, but I've sold and bought numerous items thru it (incl selling a Class A) with absolutely no problem. Just be aware and cautious about things that sound too good to be true.

In Utah, Idaho and Wyoming most people use KSL classifieds. It's managed by a local broadcast station. I just checked and they currently have over 2,500 trailers listed for sale. KSL totally dominates the internet classified market in this area, Craigslist is a distant second.

If you don't have a regional classified like this in your area I guess Craigslist is the way to go.

I did try selling a camper on RVtrader.com, but only got one contact from that, and it was from a scammer.

Since you (the OP) is out of Texas, I'd highly recommend to take it to PPL, either Houston or New Braunfels. Houston is on the I-10 corridor, the NB location is on I-35, also high volume. I'd also pay the $450 and get the detail service.

PPL has a good reputation, and has a high turnover rate on RVs, so it is worth a look.


thanks for the pplmotorhomes.com I hadnt found them. tho 10% is steep at least to me it may be worth it if they have a good turnover.

We've used Craiglist twice with great results. Use the NADA Guides for pricing and be sure you include photos and as much information as possible - people like a good ad and it will save you time with people calling with questions about the rig.
Good luck!


Happy Travels!

Tried Craigslist to sell ours and got nothing but spam.
