Friends bought a motor home that had been used 3 times in 11 years. They took it to a RV repair shop and paid them $500.00 to inspect it. They changed the tires, batteries, belts and filters and took off for the Midwest from California and returned with zero problems. You'll go crazy if you listen to too many doom sayers. One thing for sure, you can't beat the purchase price and you can afford to bring it up to date. Just give your mother a big hug and say, Thank you.
By the way someone suggested having it towed to your home, it cost me $2,100.00 to have my motor home towed 245 miles. I had no choice, insurance Co. helped out.
And this could be the situation with the OPs, but we just want them to be aware of the problems and costs that could be involved with an unknown RV, and what has happened to others, and maybe save them some grief.
