I like the floor plan. Nice big shower considering some others. Not a fan of kitchen / plumbing in the slide... inspect thoroughly! Generally the Triton V-10 engines are pretty bulletproof... they're legacy that's tried and true for many years.

As with any coach, a meticulous inspection is mandatory. Know what you're looking at... if you've owned a motorhome before you know the pitfalls of a coach which hasn't been carefully maintained.

If not, hire a qualified RV inspector to do this. What might look like a good deal could turn into a nightmare. EVERY system must be checked... plumbing, electrical, mechanical... water leaks are the cause of many RVs early death. The roof and all seams need inspected for potential leaks.

Sounds daunting, but going in blind buying an RV can be a miserable experience down the road. However, if you use due diligence... it can be a rewarding experience!!
