i frequently talk to folks as they are looking at coaches. jason is spot on. and many others here who have bought coaches can chime in. no matter what diligence you do, you Will find something that doesnt work, that you want to change or that breaks as you drive it away. or find something that is damaged and you didnt catch it.

another thing to consider is who is your warranty with? mine is with me and newellgurus. if you dont work on things yourself as much as you can, or if you take it to newell for everything to fix, it will be very very expensive to maintain. if you need to have someone fix things for you and it isnt newell, then be prepared to pay that shop to learn how to fix your rig.

for heavy mechanical things i either dont have the tools to do, or dont want to do, i have an expert bus mechanic that i trust that does it for me.

my two cents worth
