Buying Cruise America Rental Units

Has anyone recently purchase one of the Cruise America former Rental Units? I know they are high mileage and, just like former rental cars, you never know how they have been driven. Also am aware they are bare bones - but for the price you can add awnings etc.

But they are Thor's, which is supposedly a great unit.

Has anyone purchased one recently and what has your experience been?

Any help appreciated.

Why does it have to be painted? Mine is a rental and has no mural.

They strip off the mural graphics before they sell the used ones; they look rather generic afterwards. They brand them "Majestic," regardless of who made them initially--which has varied occasionally over the years, I believe. You've quite possibly seen several without realizing they were former rentals.
