Thanks for the reply! It's been sitting all winter in Lafayette Indiana. I went and picked it up back in March and hauled it back east in NC. I've been working at home and I knew the battery was shot so I just left it unhooked till 2 weeks ago. That's when I found out a friend of mine plugged it up to 220 vac plug. Fried the 2 tv's and blew the converter and charger. I used it for a year and a half with no issues except fixing the water heater. The guy at the Rv place said he would put a one piece rubber roof with some kind of really strong tape. That's still including removing units and vents. I'm mediocre at body work and I'm sure I can prep it for paint and gel coat. I'm guessing 150$ for converter and 300$ for water heater tank. Haven't even looked about fridges. I just hauled it 2 hours south of San Jose CA from NC through the Colorado Rockies to Salt Lake and then here. Very nice ride. Hopefully I can stay here in this park and money up enough and purchase a newer 5er. I'll just sell this one or loan it out to union bros who may need a place for a bit. Maybe auction it off for our suck and needy bros and sisters.
