Many thanks for all the opinions and I appreciate that these opinions come from experience. Much appreciated. Monday may be a very interesting day. If I like the way it seems to handle with the manager driving I may ask to drive it and see what he says. If he says no then it will probably be a no sale. I'll also need to look at the engine casting# as warned.
Last summer when we were going back and forth between whether to choose another MH or another TT, we did look at several MH's and we did take out one other DP, so I would have that one other DP to compare against. That one was a Tiffen Allegro Bus with one slide.
The prices of all the 1999-2000 Discovery units on RV Trader seem pretty close together in price with the higher mileage ones a bit less $$ and this one with less than 65k miles is marked at $39.9k. Only final negotiations, if we get that far, would reveal the actual buying price.
I appreciate everyone's input and I'll report back Monday evening or Tuesday. I also need to ask the insurance folks what the differences would be.
I have one more question: What would be different on a rig like this that has towed a toad or not? This one does have the 2" receiver installed. Would there be additional internal equipment on a unit that has towed or would all the extra equipment be external, like braking? Many thanks to all.
