Thanks Doug,
Your info is extremely helpful.
We got a chance to look at the interior today. It is the Holiday Rambler, has twin beds and rear bath, sofa across the front.It is actually all still original, curtains, carpet and all original appliances.
I liked the interior layout and the roominess and obvious quality. The color scheme is just a little too harvest gold for my likeing, but I could work with that.
The owner's parents bought it new. Current owner inherited it and it has been sitting in his driveway for 15 years. He plugs it in and supposedly uses the systems every summer, but I am leery. I don't think he really knows anything about the trailer. He insisted it didn't have a gray water tank. There is no antifreeze sitting in the toilet-so I'd be concerned that the seal is dried out. I would guess the dump valves haven't been used in the last 15 years either. The owner was not aware that the fridge was two-way-has never run it on propane, but says it makes ice in about 2 hours on electric.
The trailer is not hooked up now, so we did not run any systems today.
His lack of knowledge makes me concerned that he has not maintained things properly. Any input?
Martha
