How many batteries are you replacing and at what cost!!? Definitely better to do that on your own. Cleaning a resealing the roof is just that. Something that can easily be done yourself by washing it, inspecting the seams, removing caulk where there are cracks and putting on some Dicor. This is considered regular annual maintenance by the owner. DIY cost is the amount of caulk you need. Maybe $20. The furnace is likely LP lines tested etc. but if the furnace works I would leave well enough alone. A/C shouldn't need that thorough of cleaning for a 3 yr old coach and can be done by taking the interior and exterior covers off. From the sounds of it you are getting hustled by that dealer. I could take my 1 year old coach to a dealer and they would come up with a similar list probably about stuff they claim needs done and the inflated labor costs to go with it. $80-100/ hour rounded. Any time you ask a dealer to inspect a coach and ask what needs done, the list will be long. What you really want to know about this coach is if there was any water damage, frame and engine in good shape, as well as tires, brakes etc. Sounds more like they are going after a "once over" to get some cash.
Yup, I agree too. I smell a rat. LOL, Either this motorhome is in some need of some serious maintenance or the dealer is out to make a few grand.
