Thanks for all the great posts...I have been considering buying the Cruise America units or El Monte and from posts here am more assured about the used units they sell.
I am not mechanically inclined on truck engines just normal car engines ( oil and filter changes, water pumps, brake jobs, etc) but nothing majorly mechanical... not sure what to look out for on test drive other than excessive heat, vibration, leaks and smoke (rather obvius LOL)) . Anything else I should look out for?
Also what type of roofs do these units have and what do I look for when on ladder looking at the roof? Other than water spots internally what can I look for on outside?
My wife sounds very interested in rv camping, but proof is in the pudding they say how will she react when in the midst of it will tell. I guess the best way is to rent for a week and try it out. Who´s good for renting? We will probably rent out of orlando fl and go to disney for short week.
Any suggestions and pointers on the above for renting and what to look for when considering the used cruise america or el monte units?
