Looks like a well maintained fiver, apart from the nose damage. Likely just cosmetic, that aluminum is thin but the frame should handle being dropped. It's a fairly easy repair. Pull off the rubber strip on the trim to expose the screws, undo them and cut any caulking away. Slide the old piece out and reverse the process with new. Check for any possible frame damage while you're at it since you won't be able to see it before purchase.
Check all areas for water damage and mold, especially corners and the storage compartments. Why was the roof replaced?
If it meets all your needs, checks out mechanically and you think you could full-time in it comfortably without getting divorced, go for it. Who are we to say what would make you, or more importantly the wife, happy. Just make sure your truck has the capacity to handle it too.
Thank you for the sound advice!!!! I was wondering what kind of job it would be to repair that and you make it sound easy :)
