I'll take a stab at your original question.
In the $30s price range, I like my Winnebago Adventurer. You can get the longer gasser model with 2 slides, and if you look hard enough the diesels around the 2001-2002 mark will come on the market. I like the fiberglass roof and the basement A/C that the Winnebago offers.
Do lots of homework and figure out what the very low end models are (Georgetown?) and what the higher end models are (Newmar?). Different manufacturers have different lines of offerings as well.
I have a 02 Adventurer gas model that I'm happy with. I replaced the carpet and resealed the roof edges and I've been very pleased with it. With the age of coach you're going to be looking at, as long as you make some improvements and maintain it, you can resell and get most of your money back out of it and move up as you save.
Good luck and keep us informed.
