we looked at a brand new one about a year ago before we bought our winnebago. It was on 'sale' for $68K or so from $85K. Sat on the lot several months. When I drove it it had many issues mainly in construction and final preparation for something of that price range.
Window air leaks were one of the biggest, shoddy construction in driver area with the headliner not seated the stuff that held it up/on coming off, lack of any driver amenities. Manual seats, mirrors etc.
Final thing was the use of electrical conduit holder the holey stuff that is used to hold stuff together and it was loose and the generator exhaust was coming off also. Now this may have been unusual, but any company willing to send out for sale a rig in such deplorable condition makes ya wonder. They are also supposed to be one of the lower tier rvs and the lack of quality control final sure showed it to be.
Look it over very carefully and then compare to jayco or some others.
