Just look at wear and tear and check over all the systems to make sure they all work. Definitely try to get as much history from the owner as you can. I'm of the opinion that most people are going to be honest. I wouldn't necessarily say the same thing about most dealers.
I bought a used fifth wheel recently and it needed a few projects done on it, and we're replacing all the mattresses and the sofa, plus new batteries and tires. Stuff we knew we needed to do going in so nothing unexpected. It isn't quite as splashy as a new one, but we'll mostly be camping in it and we paid cash for it, and there's something to be said for that.
