    Welllll I went and looked. And passed on it with a huge thumbs down... The photos provided to me must have been from when it was bought 4 years ago. I got there and the paint was faded, interior was dirty, signs of massive water intrusion in roof and walls... generator wouldnt start. Engine...

    That is do-able once I get it back closer to my own home, but doubtful before that. of course, if fuel is bad I wouldn't be able to start it anyhow, therefore unable to check air systems and hydraulic leveling... So wouldn't buy for sure then.

    Noted. Yes, I definitely intend to get up on the roof, and check for damage/soft spots/cracks/bubbles/tears/etc. Will sniff for any musty odors. Will scooch underneath and look over chassis. Will test electrical (generator/12V/120V) functions. Will check air suspension  and air system overall...

    OK so one vote for "don't do it you fool! It's crazy!!" - noted. Would you still hold that opinion knowing that the same RV at a dealer, in poorer interior condition, sold for $24,000 just 2 years ago.... And I'm looking at scooping this up for well under $5K? And I intend to...

    Heehee that is not exactly what I meant :) Obviously the intent is to use it... But of course it must be parked/stored when not in use ;)

    Hello. I'm brand new to this forum but wanted to ask some questions here...
