Which motorhome to buy
I would like to buy a used class A motorhome but not sure which ones are of good quality.I was looking at a Thor Ace but thanks to people on this site, I learned that that unit would not fit my needs....

No one can tell you what you should buy. It's a bit like asking what car you should buy. Way too many variables and it's something you'll need to figure out for yourself. The first place to start is floor plan. Find one - or a few, that you like and think fits your needs. Then find MH's that have that floor plan. But even that depends on what your needs/wants are. Do you want something smaller to get into state and national parks, something bigger for longer camp times, solar, do you cook a lot, outdoor kitchen, raised rail, more storage, what size tanks, residential refer, washing machine, etc etc. The list goes on and on. As far as brands, while it's true that some brands have better quality than others coming off the line, in the used market it may come down to how well it was taken care of. A high end MH with a lot of miles not well taken care is no bargain. Unless you are handy and want a great deal on a fixer-upper. You can find deals in used MH and avoid a lot of depreciation but finding what you want in the condition you want for the price you want is the hunting part. Start by going to shows and large dealer lots and tour a lot of MH's. Once you start narrowing down what you think you need, spend a LOT of time in them, visualize living day to day, driving, what's it like with the slides in, etc.
