stuff needing repair
I have a class B and really want a class A and I know most folks just post problems but are these things constantly a problem. I am very handy and mechanically inclined but I read all these stories...

Hmm
More complex the rig, more to go wrong. Had my funmover 39c almost 10 yrs now! (Must be getting old)
Put 74k on it. Only two possible let show stoppers..at about 42k the heui pump took a dump. It went into limp mode at 45mph. Called cat, they said get it in ass soon as possible, started back up, it ran 55mph. I was coming home from Death Valley. Another trip, packing up the back with bikes and a rzr, the lift motor stopped mid lift. (Back of my motorhome is like a moving van)
I let the load down, opened the lift mechanism, banged the motor with a heavy wrench, voila! It was stuck in a bad stator to brush contact. It was enough to complete lifting the last bike, fixed it at home.
Score:2 temporary show stoppers, 9 years.
It does take maintenance tho..prevention is the best kind.
My class B is simpler but not without faults also.
