I agree. The options would be standard items in most cases like AC, awning, sink cabinet, wardrobe and unfortunately, used TM buyers won't pay extra for them. The swingaway hitch, IMHO, is one of the only options that is worth paying extra for. Everything else is used components and subject to depreciation. For me it's all about condition, condition and location.

I will relate it to another passion I have for motorcycles. Buy a bike from the dealer with accessories or aftermarket, ride it for a few good years and try to sell it by adding in the cost of accessories and you rarely get it sold. Remove the accessories and sell individually for 1/2 price and then sell the bike for stock retail. Nobody pays for the accessories.
