Hey guys and gals,,it's getting closer to purchase day and I have a question,How do I know if a specific unit has a rubber roof or not?/ I was advised early on to avoid rubber roofs,,No real reasons were given but I assumed it was sound advice..I am looking at a 1996 Georgie Boy Swinger,,any comments or suggestions?? Thanks in advance..
No reason to rule out a coach only because it has a rubber roof. Like everything else, it depends on if the roof was properly maintained. Look the the roof. See if it's cleaned and the rubber is still pliable. If there is any black material showing, the white layer has worn off. Move on. Check the penetrations for proper caulking. Check the inside for signs of water infiltration (strains on the overhead, peeling wall panels).
