Someone talk me out of it...

...Or into it, I am really considering a brand new 2012 Cougar 293SAB. My nearest dealer has one left, and what I believe to be one hell of a price. He is also gonna give me as much as I gave for my '95, last year...So, I ask the RvForum community, is there any reason not to go ahead, and take a $30K plunge? It is all that we have been looking for, and can't think of any reason why we would need a diffrent one for at least 12-15 more years...

just do what you gut and pocket book will allow. If you are happy with what you have keep it, fit it, or trade it

I look at newer units and would love to get into a newer one, for me a new MH is out of the question I will not pay a new price in the 250-300 grand range. But back to the question, when looking at an up grade I ask my self what will I gain in quality, amenities and new goodies. So last year I added two new TV,s a chip for the motor and some new throw rugs and I'm happy for the moment at a cost of about two payments on a really updated rig. So I guess for you the questions are can I afford the upgrade(or can I put the $$ to use better another place)?, do I really want the new?, will I get that much better use? Will I be that much more comfortable? do I just see the glitter of a new rig and want it? and will this go away a week into the new unit?
I go through this it seems everytime I go and tour some newer units and one of these days it's gunna bite me, because there are about 3-4 things I would really like to have in the MH that are not there now and impossible to put in IE; bigger motor, agua hot, 3rd or 4th slide.

Len, like you every once in a while I get the bug also. Like once a year when I go to the Atlanta RV show, and I don't go to any other RV show. And yes, I would love to have a NEW 45' diesel with all the bells . But I know just how deep or I should say how shallow my pockets are. But if I ever hit the lottery I will get the biggest and best MH. and I am not talking about a Prevolts, unless that is what the wife wants. But I will just keep what I have for now,.
