Delamination caused by heat

run away

Keep looking...delam is NOT easy to fix. There are lots and lots of RV's for sale out there.

Lots for sale but not in my budget thats less than 10 years old. Unfortunately twice now I thought I was getting a great deal only to find out that there was delam - once from water damage, now from the heat. The seller agreed to repaint the hood. I asked for more photos because there werent many and I noticed the wave in the overhang. Ive been looking for a under 24ft motorhome under 10 years less than 60k miles for under $26k on a chevy chassis (because ive read they drive better and get better mpg than fords) and this one meets all of those things. But I would also like to be able to turn around and sell it in 2 years and not have to struggle to get it sold.


If this doesnt work out I will probably go to El Monte and get a 2014 rental unit as they look like they are in amazing condition and people have had good experiences with them.

Cost to fix can easily exceed value of coach.
Also, you do not know for sure WHAT caused it!
No way I would take a chance on it.

I wouldn't go their either. The small Chevs. are hard to find.
The price should reflect the delam in a big way.

The previous owner says it was never wet but in reality he has no way of knowing if he hasn't opened it up. What he is doing is trying to shine some good light on a bad situation. Several longtime RV owners and members here have given you some very, very good advice for very reasonable fee. Take it. If you are still on the fence, have a look at your future if you insist on buying that rig...

Ron Dittmers post on page two of this thread that will(or should) send chills up your spine.

Paint peeling on the Chevy's is a common thing.

By the pictures looks to be on used RV lot ?
So who said it delaminated because of heat ?,,, no wait let me guess the salesman...

I bought my last one off CL the guy was asking $26K , it did have good bones. I pointed out all the neglect it had and what needed to be fixed.
Just needed a lot of TLC, made the deal for $13K put $5K into it put 20K miles on it . Just sold it for $25K a few months back to get the one we have now.

If your handy and can do a lot of minor things yourself?
They are out there , keep looking.

Obviously right now it's a sellers market NOT a buyers..
Be patient keep looking on CL RVtrader etc.

I agree on the Chevys ! They ride better, better mpg ,more leg room just to name a few.

There is a ton of good info on buying a used rental on this link.

Yowsa. That's a lot of money for a rig that looks like it does.

My previous TT I got quotes from 8k a side to 12k a side to fix. I live in AZ so heat is the only thing that hit mine. I traded it.

If you see any delam run away.
