Hi - this is my first time posting so please forgive missing some of the shorthand. We are considering the purchase of a 2013 Coachmen Freelander 28QB LTD Class C MH. It has 39,000 miles on it and we would be purchasing from an individual. It looks great on the inside of the RV and the engine, tires, etc. all look good. The current owners purchased from an RV dealer in the Chicago area - not one of the "big" names but a good sized dealership. They purchased it about a year ago when it had 37,000 miles. They are selling because they need a different set up for their family. Their story checks out. What we have figured out from looking at the VIN history and talking to the current owners is that it was a rental purchased new by the dealership in late 2012.
We owned a pop-up before and are really interested in going to a class C but want to buy a used one - we are recent retirees and are looking forward to some long term trips to visit kids, parks, etc. We've been reading on this forum about purchasing a former rental and have been feeling pretty good about it. But, before making the final deal with this individual, we thought it would be good to post a question here.
Any experience with Coachmen 2013 Freelander 28QB LTD (it's the Chevy 4500 chassis)? We know it's not top of the line. Any thoughts about a former rental with 39,000 for 4 years of use? (NADA doesn't show it as high miles.)
Thank you all in advance for any replies and we look forward to posting experiences on this great forum.
