Hi Gale,
First - You will need about 1/3 tank of fuel before the generator will run. They put the generator gas source about 1/3 up the gas tank so that you can't run the Motorhome out of fuel when running the generator.
Second - I would look on RV Trader
http://www.rvtrader.com/
to get an idea of what units that year are selling for. Might also be good to go visit some local RV dealers to see what similar units are selling for. However, their units have been detailed and sometimes come with a 30 to 90 warranty so the price will be higher than you could sell that one for.
If they are really serious about selling it, then I would put current tags on it, fill with gas, and make sure that all systems are working. Take it for a drive to make sure that everything works and the tires are properly filled with air. If I were to buy something that had been sitting for 4 or 5 years, without current tags.....I would probably be offering $10K or maybe a little more because there are so many unknowns at that point.
Just my 2 cents worth....for what is worth.
