Hello everyone!
So I am wanting to purchase a RV. My lady and I are younger and in the military so we don't need all the fancy pants stuff. We just want a mobile box with bed, shower, toilet, fridge, kitchenette. We need something for burning man and to park at the bottom of the mountain so we don't have to spend $200 a night on hotels when we go skiing. I found one that is for sale ($5200) across the country and I was going to have a RV repair shop in that area look at it. When I called them they said that they don't inspect anything older then 1995 models. I was told that RVs age in dog years and that something that old is going to have lots of problems and that it is going to be very expensive. She told me that I should try to buy something after 1995 to avoid that problem. Is this true? Is this a standard belief/truth in the community?
The prospective RV is a 1987 Shasta Revere Class C.
Thanks
