Appreciate all the input. My interest in an older unit is related to a couple of things?
1. I like the older look of the 60s-90s units. Specifically the mid 70s-80s.
2. I am less reluctant to renovate, change, or make improvements on an older unit because of a much lower investment. They have already depreciated as low as they are going to go. A new unit such as the one I just sold still retains a high level of value in the current market where families with children are concerned.
3. Having owned TTs for 25 years now that included models between 1995 - 2013, I consider the older units to be much stronger in terms of structural integrity.
The 2013 that I just sold was like trying to keep a shoebox safe, dry, and protected from the elements.
I know there re some very fine newer units on the market, but well above a price point that I am willing to pay. All I need is a unit that does not leak, is clean, and has a bed and AC. :)
