Hi,
I am in the process of buying a Class C 28" RV built on E450. This was a former rental. Currently it has about 160K miles on it. The current owner has extended service warranty and there was no claims for engine issue and i also did pre-purchase inspection with the local RV dealer and service, it came out good.
Even though the condition of the engine is good now, i am concerned that 160K miles maybe too much to drive around with the family?
I am a novice in this area. Earlier i had camping trailer but first time with Class C.
Any feedback on this forum would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kandy
Hi Kandy,
Welcome to the forum. Two years ago I purchased a former Cruise America 28A. It had 161,000 miles when I purchased it. I had concerns too but had it checked out and also talked to people with experience on this forum as well as Cruise America's National Service Manager. They all told me these units are well maintained through their rental lives and that these V-10 Triton engines are good for 300,000+ miles or more. My 28A now has 166,000 miles on it with no problems. We just returned an hour ago from a 1,000 mile 4-day trip. Enjoy your new rig!
