Welcome "new" to forums myself, (an OLD RV'r.) Congrats on reaching the "golden age". (Whoever coined that phrase must have been a doctor as at this age the M.D.'s get all your gold!) I have been an RV owner of one sort or another since the mid 90's so as others have said check over whatever unit you decide on well and expect to have a few "bugs" to iron out. Helps if you are handy for minor fixes. I see you intend to travel a distance to possibly purchase? My experience says that could be a problem if you need warranty work. After you take it home your local (insert brand) independent dealer won't jump through much of a hoop to fix an issue on a rig they didn't sell. May not be a problem if you are purchasing from one of the nationwide dealers like General RV or Camping World they should service a unit they sell at any of their dealers. Good luck and see you at the campfire!
Mark
