I guess you would consider us in big trouble :-), but that's allright. Our rig (a 2004 26 foot Fleetwood Jamboree) is 10 years old with 104,500 miles on it. It was a rental for most of its life but apparently well taken care of and maintained. We were able to negotiate a price of $19,500 which is probably $50,000 less that a new one. Everything in the unit works and after upgrading the chassis and cabin with new tires, shocks, steering damper, tie rods, u-joints, drive line support, none of which needed replacing, and all new fluids, we should be in pretty good shape, all for under $22,500. At 75 and 73 we wouldn't be able to get $70,000 use out of a new one.
Anyway, glad you were able to purchase new and enjoy it. Happy camping.
