Bought an RV advertised as a 27 foot but is only 24 foot. What can I do?

What is the name of your state? Alabama

In the newspaper there was an ad for a 27 foot RV. I called, went to the sellers house, and it looked what I wanted so I bought it with cash. I get it home, start going through things, and I measure it and find out it is only 24 foot long. He claims it is the newspapers fault and will not give me my money back. I know it's just three feet but I feel ripped off. Is there anything I can do?

You saw it; you bought it; it's yours.

Why didn't you measure it before you purchased it? It was a mistake. That's it.
