There seems to be an aversion to older class A's. Not sure why, but I think that group seems to like newer models so the older ones suffer in price. Note that I drive a very older class A. FMC's in various states of condition come up from time to time. I have rented a class C an and would not have one in my opinion. I would consider a used FMC gas pusher at $5-10,00 and assume $5,000 to clean up any issues and you will have a great class A at under your budget.
PM me if you have any questions.
