Obviously depreciation is a factor for new, but I also value the ready service, warranty, etc. when buying new especially for someone completely inexperienced at this. Decisions, decisions. |
Service is
ALL about the dealership. Some dealerships are really good.. some not so much. The factory, and or it's location has nothing to do with it.
If a 2-4 year old pod has been well cared for, it shouldn't have any issues. Anything "wrong" with it should have been sorted out by then. Stuff does break of course, and if you are not handy, paying someone else to fix it can be expensive. There is nothing on the pod harder to repair then the stuff around the house, do you do your own repairs and maintenance at home? If so, then you should have no issue. Do you have plumbers, electricians, and handy men on speed dial.. Then new is a better bet.
