purchasing from dealer with a hail "freckled" sidewall
About to pull the trigger, I think, on a used 2020 Braxton 24 RB with some hail damage on passenger side sidewall. Will this affect insurability and should I have it noted for warranty purposes?
Forum Discussion
- You need to talk to an insurance adjuster about the insurability of the hail damaged rig... What I suspect I suspect you do as well or you'd not have ask.
Now here is an interesting thign.. What will it do to toe TOWability.
Well Mythbusters did a segment on a "Dimpled" v/s a smooth car.. Turns out the Dimples improved MPG. - $400 prep fee?

- Congrats!
- Congrats! I am happy that you are happy. Enjoy your future lifestyle.
There's really nothing like RVing! - OK time to get a picture posted up :)
Enjoy the new RV. pbitschura wrote:
I've determined there is only light cosmetic damage on the passenger sidewall. The roof will be resealed and inspected by me at the pdi. I will get a new battery, full 2 propane tanks, and I got the 400.00 prep fee waved. I'm satisfied with the deal and pulled the trigger. Thanks all for your input.
If the discount was sufficient to ignore the resale value hit, good call.
PS: Mythbusters episode was overly complicated and horribly flawed. Much simpler would have been to take a ballpeen hammer and dent up the car after doing the pre-testing.valhalla360 wrote:
Our current camper is a 1988 Mallard C which we have had for 20 years. What do you suppose it's resale value is.....crickets... I hope they bury me in the new one. It will start out as an expensive rv but end up as a cheap coffin. Best of luckpbitschura wrote:
