Winnebago Vista LX 27n - Buying Questions
Hopefully this is the right forum for this.
I am a first time RV buyer and I think I am about to pull the trigger on a Winnebago Vista LX 27n. The purchase of my first motorhome is a few years in the making. I have done a lot of research and reading and narrowed it down to a few class A and class C models about two years ago. I narrowed it down to class A motorhomes this year and the 27n in the last few months. I am now finally on the cusp of buying. At this point I have a few last questions:
1. Are there any tips in general for things to look at when buying a new class A motorhome? Is it worth hiring a mechanic to come along to inspect it?
Keep in mind I know next to nothing about RVs outside of the research I have done and the test drives/walk through I have done. I am pretty handy so I understand how things work and can see if there are issues in plain view but are there things I should be inspecting that a person not familiar with daily life in an RV should be looking at before buying?
2. Related to the first question, is there anything specific to this make/model I should be aware of going in?
3. After all of my research, I am pretty convinced this is the right make/model for me. Of course there are horror stories with any line of RVs but assuming they are outliers, is there any overall thing I am missing thinking this is a great first time buy?
I plan to buy new but if the right one comes up, these questions could be applicable to either a new or used motorhome.
Thank you for any help or guidance you can give.
