New & Used RV Dealership & Sales in Bradenton, FL

A towable-heavy RV lot on State Road 64

The Bradenton store sits on State Road 64 East, close to I-75, so it is a straightforward drive from Palmetto, Ellenton, Parrish, Lakewood Ranch and the rest of Manatee County. It is also the Gerzeny's store closest to the Sunshine Skyway, which puts St. Petersburg buyers within easy reach. Gerzeny's RV World has been family owned since 1977, and Bradenton is one of its four Florida locations.

What sets Bradenton apart is the depth of its towable selection. When we reviewed inventory for this page in October 2026, Bradenton and Nokomis had the deepest travel trailer selections in the group, and Bradenton paired that with a large group of Class C motorhomes and a steady supply of used units. If you are shopping trailers and want to see many floor plans in one visit, this is a strong place to start.

Travel trailers for sale in Bradenton

With one of the deepest travel trailer selections in the group, Bradenton lets you compare lightweight couples' trailers, bunkhouse family models and longer rear-living layouts on the same lot. Begin with travel trailers for sale in Bradenton or the broader campers in Bradenton page. Brand shoppers can jump to Forest River campers in Bradenton, Coachmen Freedom Express or the compact inTech Sol.

Here is how we think about trailer size with buyers. Short trailers under about 22 feet are easy to back into state park sites and tow with a wider range of vehicles, but they give up interior space. Mid-length bunkhouses are the family sweet spot. Long rear-living models feel like a small apartment, though they need a capable truck and a confident driver. Before you choose, check the campgrounds you like best, because many Florida parks have older sites with length limits.

Class C motorhomes, vans and coaches in Bradenton

Class C motorhomes are the second biggest category at this store and the most popular motorized choice for Manatee County families. They give you a self-contained RV with a full bathroom, kitchen and several sleeping spots, and you can pull off at a rest area and make lunch without unhitching anything. Browse motorhomes for sale in Bradenton, all Class C units, the diesel Forest River Sunseeker and the Sprinter-based Coachmen Prism Elite.

For a more compact rig, Bradenton also carries Class B camper vans, including the Winnebago Travato, the Winnebago Ekko and Coachmen Class B models. A van is the easiest way to make a sunrise run to Anna Maria Island or a quick overnight at Fort De Soto Park. Class A motorhomes are available here as well, and the group-wide Class A inventory adds more choices from our other stores.

Fifth wheels and toy haulers

Buyers planning a winter at one resort, or full-time living, should walk through the fifth wheels in Bradenton and the Forest River fifth wheel and travel trailer selection. If you need garage space for bikes, a kayak rack and a golf cart, look at toy haulers in Bradenton.

How we suggest buying your first RV in Bradenton

The first-time buyers who end up happiest with their RV usually follow the same order of operations. This is the process we walk people through.

1. 1
   Pick your trips, not your RV. Write down the five trips you are most likely to take in the next year: where, how long and with whom. That list decides size, layout and towable versus motorhome.
2. 2
   Set a full budget. Include the purchase, insurance, storage, campground fees and a yearly service visit. Start the Bradenton finance application early so you know your range.
3. 3
   Match the RV to your tow vehicle. For trailers, compare GVWR and tongue weight with your vehicle's ratings. For motorhomes, think about where you will park and whether you will tow a car.
4. 4
   Walk through several floor plans. Sit in the dinette, lie on every bed, stand in the shower. Bring the whole family. Browse new RVs in Bradenton and used RVs in Bradenton ahead of time to build a shortlist.
5. 5
   Inspect and compare pricing. Check specials, overstock deals and the deal of the week. Gerzeny's advertises a price match on new units with a valid dealer-signed purchase agreement for an identically equipped unit.
6. 6
   Record the delivery walkthrough. Film every system the technician explains. You will refer to that video more than the owner's manual.

New or used in Manatee County?

Bradenton carries a solid used selection, so you can compare a new unit with a pre-owned one of similar size on the same visit. New RVs bring full manufacturer warranty coverage and current features. Used RVs cost less because the first owner absorbed the early drop in value, but condition varies widely, especially in Florida where sun and humidity work on every seal.

For any used unit, look for soft spots on the floor near the door, bathroom and kitchen, waviness on the sidewalls, staining around ceiling vents and fogged or leaking windows. Ask how it was stored and request service records. Run the AC, water heater, refrigerator and generator before you talk price. A used RV with a documented maintenance history is worth more than a cheaper one with none.

If you want added peace of mind on a pre-owned purchase, ask about RV protection plans. And if you are selling, the trade-in and consignment page lets you submit details for a valuation Gerzeny's aims to return within 24 hours, with the choice to trade, take a cash offer or consign the RV for professional marketing, showings and on-site storage.

RV service, parts and Florida ownership tips

The Bradenton service and parts team works Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Services include oil changes, tire rotations and brake checks, plus plumbing, electrical, HVAC and structural repairs, warranty service and preventive maintenance plans. Check current service specials before scheduling. For collision, paint, fiberglass or roof damage, the Gerzeny's RV body shop in Nokomis is a short drive south and provides written estimates at no charge.

A few habits keep Manatee County RVs out of the repair bay:

• Inspect roof sealant and seams every six months and after strong storms. Water damage is the most expensive repair we see, and it starts small.
• Rinse salt air residue off the exterior and undercarriage after beach trips to Anna Maria Island or Fort De Soto.
• Keep AC filters clean and run the unit before each trip so you find problems at home, not at the campground.
• Cover tires and windows in storage, and use a dehumidifier inside to stop mildew.
• Have a plan for hurricane season, which runs June 1 through November 30, including where the RV goes if a storm is forecast.

Mistakes Bradenton buyers tell us they wish they had avoided

• Buying the longest trailer the truck can technically tow and then dreading every drive.
• Not checking whether the HOA allows RV parking at home.
• Choosing bunks for kids who will outgrow them in two summers.
• Skipping the extended test drive in a motorhome, including a highway merge and a tight turn.

Financing your RV at the Bradenton store

The Bradenton finance office serves Bradenton, Palmetto and Manatee County. Submit the online Bradenton credit application and the team can review options from its lender network before you arrive. You will also hear about GAP coverage and extended service contracts. Ask what each one covers and what it costs over the life of the loan before you decide.

A practical tip: compare loan offers by total cost, not just the monthly payment. A longer term lowers the payment but increases total interest, and an RV can lose value faster than the loan balance drops in the early years. A solid down payment or a trade-in helps keep that gap small. More information is on the main RV financing page.
