Frankly I can't see being in love with a particular unit or floor plan so much that I'd be willing to live with a "fixed" camper that will likely have many many issues throughout the rest of its useful life.
Yes, that is correct. The replacement cost was well below that of a new comparable camper. I was able to find on the internet a couple of campers the same model and age as mine for appoximately the amount of the replacement cost check, but then I would have had someone elses 05/06 camper. Mike Williams, the service manager at Lance, wrote me that mine was in pristine condition except of course, for the damage inflicted on it.
If you look at the listing I made of damages you will note that most of the items are those that need to be replaceed. The physical structure is intact. For example, the TV,the TV swivel bracket, the generator, the propane tanks, the seat cushions, the rear door, the side panel door,the DVD/CD/Radio player, the control panel, and the exterior refrigerator cover, etc. The repair work involves redoing the electrical wiring and propane lines and some relatively minor cabinet work. I am confident that the Lance factory facility can handle that work skillfully.
