That may be a "new' trailer but it is also a damaged trailer. I think that there is something wrong to have that many cracks in the sides. Maybe the frame is screwed up and putting tension on the side panels. I personally would not buy it.

I agree with this! This trailer is new??

The trailer is a 2018 but has a salvage title do to storm damage.

AND yet another person who will be whining about the title getting branded "salvage" down the road..

Honest to goodness, unless you are willing to do ALL as ENTIRE LABOR WORK you will never, ever be able to "recoop" the labor costs of this type of repair.

You have a compromised structural repair, most likely will need to remove the interior paneling and the exterior fiber glass in order to straighten out the racking which happened.

You most likely would be further ahead to build a completely new from scratch slide then remove the damaged slide and put your home built slid in place.

There is no telling just how bad the racking damage to the wall but it was plenty enough to rip the fiberglass AND the wood substrate under it.

RUN, do not just walk away from it.. There is way too many better used RVs out there and I doubt you are going to get a "deal" on a auction/salvage unit and it will have a salvage title to haunt you the rest of your life too boot.
