I'm not too worried about issues with the appliances or trim. I'm more concerned about structural issues and leaks. I'm going to store whatever I end up with under a carport and will probably only use it a day or 2 at a time a few times a year.
Mike.
Our motorhome had always been stored indoors - and when we sold it 10 years after we bought it - it looked like new. If I was going to buy a used RV, I'd rather have someone's "baby" that was stored inside, than an expensive RV that had spent its life exposed to harsh weather.
You should be able to view all the tiedown points from the inside; and maybe the leg/jack connections? In the case of my camper, the curbside rear tiedown (located in the LP gas compartment) looked like it had been wet a few times - NOT rotted, but the wood was "wavy", so I added a steel reinforcing plate to the inside, just in case.
In your case, if you start with a sound camper, it should surely stay that way?
