Ok, I guess it's hardly a real downside in the sense that one doesn't have to endure everything I dislike so about shopping at a dealer, but as we're getting closer to closing on a "gently used" Class A my biggest concerns have to do with maintenance. For example, one of the RVs we're looking at has been back to the factory to address all outstanding issues discovered since purchase but the two year warranty is not transferable to a new owner for any issues found going forward. As a result we would not have that level of comfort (if "comfort" is the appropriate word) one gets with the original warranty.
Also even though there is a dealer fairly near us that sells these models new it's been made clear to us that were we to need any kind of service that we'd go the bottom of the waiting list (if they would take it at all) given it was not purchased there.
So my questions would be, are there 3rd party warranty companies out there that might be worth looking at? Also what might be the advantages/disadvantages of working with an independent RV repair shop should the need arise?
