JMO but if you're considering Coleman / Fleetwood you're missing the most important issue - the roof. Could be conventional aluminum skin with a centre seam, could be ABS, could be AlumiTite (a.k.a. AlumiLeak), could be seamless Filon, could be seamless aluminum skin. This by far should be your most important consideration - choose the wrong roof and you could be in for a world of hurt with a used camper.
Thanks for your insights SoundGuy. I'm learning more and more about these types of units and yes, the roof issues cause me great concern as a hefty repair bill, post purchase, would not be good.
Based on the roof issues, it sounds like I should be avoiding all Fleetwood & Coleman campers from the era I'm searching for/able to afford? That narrows the field considerably as the majority of used units I see for sale are Fleetwoods or Colemans.
