Anything you find at $10,000 for less will likely end up costing another $5000. Here is an example of what is available if you are patient. I found a 99 Bounder 28 ft. in Sierra Vista for $15,000. Had 40,000 miles and looked and even smelt new. It lacked fancy options but had new tires and the brakes had just been done. I passed for other reasons. A lot of the units @ Q are dealer or auction junk looking for a sucker. 24 ft. Class A's are just too short. Handle poorly and not enough room. The 28 footers usually sell quickly. Stay away from the GM's as they have a weak chassis and will require over $3000 in handling fixes. Have fun!!

Thanks. I would have bought that 28 foot bounder. As for Q, the dealers that drive the rigs to the show in January have reliable rigs or they couldn't make the journey. And out of town dealers prefer to make the sale rather than drive the rig back.
A re manufactured V10 sells for around $4000 or less and is warranteed for 3 years or 100K miles. And there are dozens of shops around here (phoenix area) to do the install.
