I spent a few hours yesterday with this unit. Went through all the systems and tested everything out. The unit has a handful of small cosmetic issues, but it 100% functional with exception to the bath fan electric cover. Owner has parts coming in this week to replace it. Roof in good shape including all sealant. No signs of water intrusion in the coach.
After yesterday I have a few questions.
1. Owner says he drives with exhaust brake on 90% of the time. I tried the exhaust brake during test drive. Worked fine but I couldn't wrap my head around why you would drive with it on in town???
2. Owner says he keeps his black tank full of water when not in use to minimize smells etc. Anyone do that?
3. Owner is owner number 2. Owner number 1 told him not to use the slide locks, particularly when slides are in. Guy told him they are probe to failure. Any input on this?
Thanks for your input
