The last MH we owned was what is now classified as a B+ (though I'd consider it a C- :) ). It was 8 years old when we bought it, and had been well cared for; even though we bought from a dealer, the previous owner willingly met with us and went over all sorts of things about the camper. We kept it about 5 years, and by then found that something was always going wrong with the non-camper aspects of it. Not being mechanically inclined, we were forever having to take it to the shop. That experience made us give up on MHs of any type and go to trailers - at least if your tow vehicle breaks down, you can still be camping someplace, rent a car for a few days, etc. If the MH breaks down, you're out of house as well as vehicle. Just something to think about, especially if you're considering used rigs.
