2011 Winnebago Sightseer
Hi all,
I found a decent looking low mileage (23,000) 2011 Winnebago Sightseer. The current (2nd) owned has had it for two seasons over which time he started suffering from dementia. He drove when he shouldn't have sideswiped something damaging one of the storage compartment doors on the left side. Worst of all last fall it didn't get winterized and the result at a minimum is a new water heater, some pvc fittings and a new toilet or toilet valve. The fresh water tank had never been used and the grey and black water tanks don't seem to be leaking. I put low air pressure (15 lbs) to the system after bypassing the water heater and blocking off the toilet line. Far as I could tell it held air although the cracked fittings were letting some air out. The price is right but I'm wondering if this is something I should walk away from. I think the damage is minimal but not sure. The price is low enough below average list that I can comfortably put 8k to 10k into it (including new tires) doing all the other work myself. Thoughts/opinions are appreciated.
