Also good point about the wood framing. I thought I had read that somewhere, not sure when they went to aluminum but either way I've had experience with water intrusion (and the subsequent repairs) on a past 5er so I've definitely got an eye for that now. I've seen some TCs on craigslist that claimed no leaks but from looking at the ceiling in the pictures I could tell something was going on...
Thanks!
