Cheap Travel Trailers (Katrina Gov Auction)

A buddy of mine bought a cheap travel trailer from this gov't auction site.

http://search.gsaauctions.gov/texis/...pr=gsaauctions


Looks like FEMA is unloading a bunch of travel trailers from hurricane katrina. Most of the units are in MS, AL, FL, ARK, and IN.

(500 listed for this week) Looks like most of them have no holding tank and need some repairs. These units have probably seen more use than most any TT on the market.

I don't have any need for one (although I already bought them with my tax dollars). Good luck if you need a travel trailer.

A buddy of mine just got 4 of them! He got them last week, on the opening day. They are all in excellent condition, 2 of them have never been lived in.

I just went to GSA.gov then went to auctions, most of the trailers are trashed, but a 32" trailer for $4K isn't too bad if you wanna do the work.

Dont know why the link won't work. Just go to

www.gsaauctions.gov and ckick on the trailers and tractors link.

The site is slow (like all gov't action) to load.

I just got back from VA monday night with my FEMA trailer. . I bought a 2006, 33ft Travel trailer with slide out dinete/sofa. Paid $8560.00 for a 25k trailer. Mine was pretty clean, but it needs a few things fixed up. It was well worth the time. You need to look closely at their descriptions and pictures. Do some research on book values and floor plans. Most all of the manufacturer's have websites.
