Used Tiffin Motorhomes: Buying Guide, Models & Prices

Tiffin Motorhomes has hand-built coaches in Red Bay, Alabama since 1972, and among Class A owners the name means two things: quality cabinetry and legendary service. The Tiffin service campus in Red Bay is a pilgrimage site where owners camp on-site while factory techs work on their coaches — a support culture no volume brand matches.

Used Tiffins hold value near the top of the motorhome market, just under the boutique builders. The Open Road is the gas value entry, the Phaeton is arguably the most popular diesel pusher ever built, and the Allegro Bus is the luxury flagship. As with every used coach, chassis records and water integrity decide the deal — but with Tiffin you're starting from a better-built box.

What Tiffin is known for

Popular used Tiffinmodels & prices

Allegro Open Road (32–36' gas Class A)

$75,000–$140,000 used

The best-selling gas Class A in America for years running. Ford F-53 chassis, honest floorplans, and Tiffin finish at a gas price.

Allegro Breeze (33' compact diesel)

$110,000–$170,000 used

A rare thing: a small front-engine diesel Class A that fits tighter campgrounds while keeping the diesel ride.

Allegro Red (33–38' diesel)

$120,000–$190,000 used

The entry diesel pusher — rear diesel ride and tow capacity at the friendliest pusher price in the lineup.

Phaeton (36–40' diesel pusher)

$150,000–$280,000 used

The one everybody cross-shops: quad slides, residential interior, PowerGlide or Freightliner chassis. Deep used inventory keeps pricing rational.

Allegro Bus (37–45' luxury diesel)

$220,000–$450,000 used

The flagship — tile floors, premium coachwork, 450+ hp. Competes with coaches costing far more new, which makes clean used ones compelling.

Ranges are typical asking prices for privately sold and dealer-listed rigs in the U.S.; condition, mileage, and floorplan move prices substantially.

Buying a used Tiffin: what to check

  1. Buy the chassis history first: oil analysis or service records on the Cummins/Powerglide driveline, generator hours, and proof of annual roof and seal maintenance
  2. Water is the killer even on premium coaches — check slide roofs, the front/rear cap seams, and inside every overhead cabinet for staining
  3. Tiffin will run the VIN and tell you the build sheet and warranty/service history — call Red Bay before you commit
  4. Test the full electrical stack: inverter, transfer switch, slides, and leveling on both shore and generator power; big-coach electrical gremlins are expensive to chase

Frequently asked questions

Why do used Tiffins cost more than similar-size coaches?

Build quality and the service story. The cabinetry, wiring, and fiberglass work are a tier above volume brands, and Red Bay will still support a 20-year-old coach — the market prices that confidence in.

Is the Phaeton worth it over the Allegro Red?

The Phaeton adds tag-axle options on longer floorplans, higher-end finishes, and more cargo capacity. If you travel months at a time, yes; for a few trips a season the Allegro Red delivers most of the experience for meaningfully less.

Did quality change after Thor bought Tiffin?

Thor Industries acquired Tiffin in 2020 but kept the family management and Red Bay operations. Early-2020s builds show the same supply-chain-era inconsistencies as the whole industry — inspect those years on their merits.
