My used rig horror stories:
One with the black tank dropped (see the article on dumping black water.)
One that six months earlier that looked OK from the outside... but when I opened the door, I found it was used for a drunken college party, the toilet was on the queen bed, and people just hurled on the floor. It was sealed up since then, so when I opened the door to check it out, the smell nearly overcame me.
Another rig that looked decent from the outside, but the door handle came off in my hand.
Yet another rig that was completely rotted around the slide, could tell by smell.
After that, I thew in the towel, bought new. No smells of bad burritos, I know who used my bed, the chairs are clean (and covered), etc.
I probably will trade my TT in, but if I go sell mine, I'd have it detailed (about $500), and stick it at PPL for a realistic figure.
I might take the plunge for a used motorhome (since the ones I was looking at when visiting PPL were in decent shape), I'd probably get a steam cleaner that can do dry steam at 200 degrees (94 degrees C), (the Vapamore MR-100 or MR-75 are two examples), or a service that can offer this, and have the mattresses, furniture, and upholstery done this way. At the minimum, it will kill any bedbugs.
