Regarding the interior; I have not found any reliable relationship between coach miles and the condition of the interior. You have to look at pictures, talk to the owner and then make a guess as to whether you are willing to risk the cost of a visit. When you have a look-see, only then will you know if it meets what you want.

Regarding generators; you could expect to get 20-30,000 hours before it dies, but it could also toast itself next week with less than a thousand hours. Again, my perspective would be less about the hours and more about the condition based upon a personal inspection and fluids testing. Mind you, this is being said by a guy that bought his current coach sight unseen, no testing, no visit with wife in tow. I knew the previous owner was a good guy and that is all I needed to know.

Grandpa: the questions you are asking are smart perspectives to explore, they could, and I emphasize could, also be an indication of seeking a coach that will never ever bite you unexpectedly in the pocket book. Owning a coach inherently exposes you to the risk that something expensive will break. Increasing your knowledge allows you to reduce that risk but it doesn't eliminate. There is no way to guarantee the future. You use your best judgement, realize bad stuff (think expensive stuff) can still happen and figure out if you can live with that. Hopefully you can, also hopefully the bad stuff never happens.
