I spent 1300 on an RV inspection and realized that I would be in in it $100k not just the 50k sale price. The pictures looked good, so it was a big disappointment. I'm glad you didn't move forward with it. They wanted to make a deal with me and I told them they'd have to give it to me for free for the cost and trouble it would cause me.

Is this the one in Tulsa Oklahoma? It's been for sale for over a year.

Yes, that's the one. Pictures make it look good. No mention in the ad that it needs work. And it needs a LOT. It breaks my heart that such a nice coach fell into such poor condition.

Is there a link? Curious. I've had my share of major renovations and repairs. Can't afford another one. heck, I can't afford this one!

Thanks Jack, Yep, it needs exterior cosmetic work. Makes me wonder what engine it has and what it needs under the bus. I overpaid for mine when I got it at 51k but it was right around the corner so to say and I am a sucker for lost puppies and mine was one lost sick puppy. I have a little over 120k into it with purchase price.

You'd probably be into this one over 100k once you were done. The inspection I had done showed so much of the mechanicals were either not working, or not working properly.
