Carfax on used motorhome?

I'm looking at a couple of used motorhomes and wondered if a Carfax or something similar can be found for RV's. ????
  • I used Carfax on my recent purchase and it did provide some interesting information. I have looked at before listing some of my own vehicles and found incorrect information on those vehicles (which I owned since new). In terms of the investment it is a small cost, just take it with a grain of salt.
  • I tried to use Carfax on RVs I was interested in. The company told me they had very few listings for RVs, and to find they had the one I needed would be just lucky. They do cars, not RVs.
    They gave me a refund.
  • I have had pretty good luck with carfax honestly... However, NOTHING will beat a good eye to check things out. On an RV, there are so many things and complications... So many cubby holes and features. Consider that carfax may cost you $30 for a good report... On an RV, go ahead and spend $100 on a person who can really check it out well.
  • Carfax is more than useless, it's often just plain wrong. Google bad carfax reports for more information.
