@kennethholland -- I concur with Islandman's assessment. It took me nearly two years crisscrossing California searching and inspecting my candidates for purchase. This included a couple of airfares in addition to long-distance driving (in California, like Texas, anything under three hours is considered a commute).
Have patience, do your research and don't be too anxious to pull the trigger too soon. For me, it paid off quite handsomely, netting a good rig at a fantastic price that still hasn't been matched four years later.

Don't buy sight unseen, and only buy after you've personally looked at it and driven to check for handling, etc. The only problem with buying out-of-state is you may decide against purchase and return home empty handed via bus or however you got to the seller's location. It may be possible to have someone at the seller's location look it over before you make your move, just a quick glance at the general condition will usually indicate whether the unit is worth your time and trouble to make further inquiry.
