Hello everyone. Just joined the forum hoping for some help. We are a young Christian family of 6 (with possibly more on the way), we are heading to southern Texas for 9 months-ish, and then possibly back here... where its freezing. I know some of you that are used to really warm weather all the time are thinking we may be nuts, but I know people do it.
I posted the ad below, but does anyone know better what it is I should be looking for? How do you decide between a higher end unit... and the massive debt that goes with it, and an older-you can pay off in a couple months or so-?
p.s. We hate debt... but dont want a lemon.

Hi all! We are having a terrible time finding a fitting motorhome- do you have one for sale?
-$10000-40000 (Willing to buy an older one if it's mechanically trustworthy)
-lower than 70,000 km (will consider up to 90,000 though)
-class c preferred or something with bunks (We want fixed extra bed(s) that can be decorated for our older two children... thus our thoughts on the class c over-cab bed)
-Queen bed in rear (Would settle for a double if all else is found)
- seat belts for 8 (we are a growing family of 6...and I may be expecting again)
-winter package (Traveling south for a while but may need something that can handle a Canadian winter!) things like plumbing under foot and not in walls, specially insulated floor/roof/ walls. Double pane windows an asset.
- Washroom with enough space to squeeze two (Should a child need my assistance)
-Tub (preferred) or a shower with a deep enough "lip" around bottom to bathe a toddler in. (though I can buy some kind of basin if you have a unit that has everything else)
- thru/ basement storage
- the less (prefer no) carpet the better"
