Factors Affecting Value Blue Books Free Appraisals Compare with Actual Sales Compare with Vehicles for Sale Customer Comments Blue Books
Please note the following about recreational vehicle guides as compared to automobile guides:
- Book values for autos are set by analyzing a vast amount of actual used car sales data.
- Used RV values published in books are mostly determined by taking a percent of the original MSRP and are; therefore, not very accurate. If you are not careful, many options may be counted twice because they are already included in the original manufacturers suggested retail. PPL does not recommend relying only on price guides.
Kelley Blue Book Values are not available online. However, you may purchase these blue books from PPL (Please be aware that book values are likely to be inaccurate). The costs below are for a single recent issue and not for an annual subscription.
Because of the difficulty of using and inaccuracy of the price guides for RVs, PPL suggests that you call us about the value of the RV you are selling. None-the-less, we will be happy to look up a book value for you at no charge or obligation. However, we believe that PPL's appraisals are the most accurate means of determining the Fair Market Value of your RV. Please call 1-800-755-4775 to discuss the value of your RV.Compare Advertised Vehicles

Factors to Consider in Valuing Your Unit

- Accessories: such as awnings, satellite dishes, premium graphics, automatic leveling, high quality beds, etc. However, keep in mind many of these items may be included in the base blue book values.

Customer Comments
I found it odd for PPL to be in an RV Trader magazine, so I came down and was amazed at how much better it was going to be to find an RV this way then thru magazines or stumbling across one.
Randy B.We have been coming to PPL for years and now we finally have the motor home of our dreams. Thank you.
Bruce V.We have nothing bad to say about PPL. We really enjoyed doing business with everyone involved with the purchase of our RV.
