https://omaha.craigslist.org/rvs/4931254466.htmlMy wife had this come across her facebook page, and as stated, was also posted on craigslist.We camp pretty frequently locally, and take a long trip once a year. All that's really important is that the wife is interested in it.I know for one, that the pics listed are copied from a website, perhaps the original sale, so there is that, but i figured the experts here would be able to pick this apart a bit, and let me know what you think overall.

From NADAguides.com Thor did not make a 32VS in 2013. They did make a 32VS in 2012.I didn't search pricing besides NADA, but Thor motorhomes are heavily discounted when new.

They are asking way too much IMHO. I'd be interested at about $75K max.

Here are the 2012 and 2013 Thor Challenger brochures. There is no 32VS shown for 2013.

I would check the model year closely via the VIN and manufacturer.

I did a search and there are lots of 32vs 2013 advertised for sale

I had emailed the person who posted the listing. She did email me a window sticker, hopefully you will be able to see this.

i did a google search on that vin which turned up nothing, however will a vin search pull a vehicle? or perhaps i typed it wrong initially. it's pulling up a ford stripped chassis.

Just a bunch of poetic license in advertising price and value. I couldn't say if $90K is a good price or a bad price and that is all that matters to a buyer. Guess that the people owe around $90K and that is what is setting "firm" price. Saying that the sticker price from 3 years ago is the "value" of the rig is just idle dreaming. Probably could have bought it new for around $110,000. In the grand tradition of these forums, I will say you can probably do better for less.

Local dealer had a consignment last year - similar circumstances except the male purchaser died on the maiden trip. Less than 2,500 miles on the unit. The widow wanted way less than what they gave for it - if I remember correctly asking $79,000. NADA was $119,000.
