Even if I needed the assistance of RV mechanics, over the years, would it not be less expensive to spend let's say $12,000, and take the chance, rather than to spend $90,000?
Yes absolutely. Depreciation is the biggest expense.
But I think you need to stay up around $20K for something that doesn't have high miles and that LOOKS and is claimed to be inexcellent condition.
BUT....you need to be willing to put up with stuff going bad during the first year mostly.
I had to do tires right off, even though "they looked good".
Alternator and battery.
Battery transfer solenoid.
Front brakes (caliper stuck on one side).
New carb on generator.
New radio in cab.
Better TV antenna.
I HOPE things have settled down a bit now.
