Having owned a 96 Dynasty for many years, I can attest to their quality. IMO, you'll get lots of useful life out of that coach. Personally, I'd look at the delam "issue" but it wouldn't be a deal breaker. The 8.3 is a solid engine but again IMO it's underpowered for that coach if you intend to pull a heavy toad. I'd look at a lightweight toad such as a good used HHR. 3100#. Take a good look and have the oil tested. Check the tire date codes. New tires will set you back around 5k. Oil changes, filter changes lube and inspection will set you back about $300 @ SpeedCo. I never did my own oil changes, and still don't because of the number of quarts of oil needed.....Dennis
Oh! and here's a picture of my old rig....D
