Hi all, I'm looking at my first motor home. Looking at getting a used Class A diesel pusher.
I've found a 1993 Fleetwood Southwind 34' 5.9L Cummins with 93000 miles. 4 speed Allison transmission. Owner states it burns about a quart of oil every 1000 miles. The generator is a diesel 6.5kw with about 2600 hours on it (1900 put on it in the last 2 years). Has leather Capt. chairs and sofa/dinette seating. Sleeps 6. Price is 22K, slightly below NADA low value.
Questions:
Are Fleetwood Southwinds historically a good sturdy unit?
Does that sound like a fair price?
What is the expected generator life since it has high hours?
Any concern with the oil burning?
I'll be towing and launching an approx. 3500 lb. 21' boat. See any problems with towing this or navigating around boat ramps? This does have the backup camera.
Also any other feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks alot in advance for any input!
