Oh on the age look for the DOT code on the tires, it is molded into the sidewall near the rim on one side. Last 4 digits are week and year of manufacture, WWYY so week 3 of 2005 would be shown as 0305.
There is a good probability of a THREE DIGIT date code. It would be WWY, because the Year is only one digit prior to 2000. The '2000' model coach could have been sold or manufactured as early as January of 1999 and could have used an even older chassis made in 1998. Those tires could be 16 years old....old enough to drive:S
Either way, its all acedemic now. That coach needs to drive straight to the nearest tire shop.
