Bill of Sale

Looking for a draft or copy of a Bill of Sale for motor home. This will be a cash sale transaction between private parties (seller & buyer).
Anyone have such a thing they can share? Thanks!

Shouldn't be any different than a bill of sale for any other motor vehicle.

Here's what the Florida DHSMV has:

This helps, however, I'd like to find something with language that stipulates that there is no warranty, expressed or implied by the seller, on either the motor home itself or any included optional equipment such as TPMS, GPS, TV's, appliances, etc. I could probably draft up something myself but would like to be sure I don't overlook something important.
Don't want to have to 'reinvent the wheel', if I don't have to.

You don't have to reinvent the wheel, as any private party 'used' sale is already recognized by any state as 'no warranty', and a 'as is' sale... you don't have to state that or write that in - just put down your name and address, the new owners name and address, the Vehicle description and VIN, how much you are selling it for, what type of 'payment' is being received, and have both sign and date it... Simple as that. They keep their copy in the even they interact with the authorities along the way before they get their new tag for it, and you keep your existing tag - it's yours.

Guess I'm over-thinking this and y'all are right. Apply the KISS rule...keep it simple stupid! Thanks for your input.

right - probably more folks get into legal 'trouble' by trying to 'add' legal 'jargon' to simple transactions - keep it simple.

I don't think you were overthinking it.
The wording you used in a prior post in this thread will work nicely.
Write it out, have them sign it, take a picture of the signed document which has their driver's license in the picture.
The picture will eliminate the:

That's not my signature,

my wife bought it and I wasn't even there,

it was dark and I don't know what I signed,

they didn't tell me it didn't have an oven,

I thought those roof vent covers were air-conditioning units,

no he didn't say dually, he said dual air,

my prius has adaptive cruise control, its the same year as this motor home. Of course he told me it had adaptive cruise. Why would I expect it to not?

Anyone can take you to court no matter the official vehicle transfer document.

Word it well and severe, make all parties sign it.
Its five minutes to write something inarguable.
Take the five minutes.

Think of some of the insipid complaints you've read on this forum from inane buyers.
Protect yourself from them.

Just info from someone who has sold 100's of cars privately(collectable cars which were a Financial reach with a lot of aftersale handwringing second guessing for most of the buyers...about the same as an rv).

1971 'cudas came in three shadrs of turd brown/gold that they were often indistinguishable unless in bright light. Try getting sued over the color of an original factory painted car the guy spent 6 hours looking at before he coughed up the cash....

You can't put enough words in there.

a few times I've only signed over the TITLE to the new owner, don't know what 'better' bill of sale you can have!
