Agreed: tex2 has some good points. Take his advice! Test everything. Also if it smells musty, look for signs of leaks. Older RVs used lots of wood truss and wall support. And if it leaked for long there could be rot. Look for soft spots in floors, walls, ceiling or water stains. Yes the rv...

I used snaps: Install them where there were already screws to hold the molding. You can find the snaps on sewing isle at Walmart. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This dude is clickbait!!!!!! He has a “worst vehicle - do not buy” video for just about every model made! Given enough time he will have one for “Every” vehicle made eventually. It’s all around total number of views for his channel , and he knows if you see something negative about your...

Looks good, the lights on both sides and rear make me wonder if it was som sort of emergency vehicle in a former life? 2 entry doors to house (side and rear) is also kinda unusual. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

2006 Cummins 5.9 Still running strong. But you’re right, I doubt later generation motors with EGRs or DEF will last like the older ones. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This! I had many power stroke trucks until the 6.0 and addition of EGR and associated issues. I also had Cummins 5.9 and loved it (still have that truck with over 350k mikes). I had a 2017 sprinter with v6 and DEF. Pulled good but had constant sensor problems. Drank DEF fluid. It averaged 16...

You might want to look into: South Dakota - look on YouTube , there are several full time RVers that show how easy it is to become a resident and registering your rig. Also insurance is pretty cheap from there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can relate to this. I did the trailer thing for the past 15?years and 4 units. Then I got a class b, it’s cool that I can drive it to work and pretty much use like a car (almost cause it’s big) and damn thing cost a ton! But I’m now kinda wishing I had just got a slide in for my 3/4 ton...

My thoughts Exactly! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Condition is everything! Miles not as much a factor! If it smells when you enter, it’s probably had (or still has) water leaks - RUN FROM THAT! Miles? I’d rather buy a 20-30 year old rv that some old man took great care of maybe it lived under a roof. With high miles - Than buy a low mileage...

2019 Winnebago Travato class B (on 2018 dodge promaster chassis) With a gas 3.6 v6 Pentastar motor with 6sp auto (that’s the same v6 dodge uses in many vehicles - base 1/2 ton pickup, Cherokee Chief, Grand Caravan, etc.) My van loaded out is around 8-9 thousand lbs. I’ve got 15k miles on it...

Is that Eddie’s RV - lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think “Almost There” is giving you good advice. In today’s market, it is an extreme exception to find a class B for sale that is under $10k and still in good condition. I’m not saying you can’t find them, but most will require lots of repairs or replacement on onboard systems. Unless you’re...

As others have said: Learn to use mirrors - it’s not bad once you do it, you will naturally be more cautious. The worst part is if you have no side window on middle passenger door - this becomes difficult when merging into another road that intersects at 45 degrees!!! You will learn to not put...

Agreed $1100 is nuts! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Let’s see 40 years? Didn’t Doc return return to 1985 from 2015 in a flying delorean in BTF-2 That was only 30 years ahead! [emoji23] LOL probably still no flying vans but If anything, we might see more electric vehicles by then! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s funny how things work (if you don’t understand them) this was new to me. I was puzzled why my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 (3/4 ton truck) cost more to insure than my wife’s 2016 Honda Pilot (midsize suv) 10 years newer! My agent explained that on our liability portion, it’s the fact that the...

I had same corrugated stuff on my 2007 Keystone VR1 travel trailer. It was installed at keystone factory. Only mine didn’t have spray foam. It was pretty solid across the entire under carriage (no gaps). I did cut a 3 sided box opening one winter to place a 60 watt incandescent light in there to...

Agreed: If that 12 year old rubber roof was out in sun all its life it needs close scrutiny! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
