We're considering a used 2010 Fleetwood Bounder 33U from a private party who is the original owner but has health problems now. It has about 11,000 miles on it and appears to be in good shape with new tires. Based on my check of NADA, the price appears to be very good. We would have it checked out thoroughly if we proceed, but it appears to be well maintained on an inside/outside visual inspecction, haven't driven it yet. I'm a previous RV owner, but 29' C Class. The RV (and us) are in the mid-atlantic but it was bought and primarily used down south.
Does anyone have concerns about this model and things like the full wall slideout? Are owners of these happy and how have they held up, being V10 gas? Should we barter for or buy a warranty since it's out of the mfg warranty? Which are worthwhile? Someone mentioned XtraRide.
Thanks in advance for any help.
The V10 is a solid performer and has few problems if maintained. Same for the Bounder.
Check the date codes on the tiers so you know how old they are.
I would self insure. You will have money in the bank rather in the warranty co.'s bank.
