We did make a mistake. We enjoy camping and taking our Class C places. It is too small. We bought a rental return and we paid too much. We have records of all the maintenance done on it. It was evident on our second trip in it we got taken. The dealer Dan Gamel in Fresno, just took us. The outboard tires on the rear of the coach were all shiny and new, but the inboard tires were old and waiting to fail. When the tire blew out on our second trip we felt we had definately made a mistake. We feel now that for the money we would have been better off with a new travel trailer than a used motorhome. We had to reseal the roof and a couple of windows. The coach battery is already bad. We have already replaced the AC and the refer cover. We have had to work at getting the dealer to make right on the situation. When we went back to trade in our Motorhome, they offered us $18k after charging us $32k. We were really naive shoppers to begin with and it has been a good learning experience. But a very expensive mistake.
