Can you buy new what CA rents

Are the units that Thor or Four Winds make for CA or these other rental companies the same as what the average customer can buy from them, or do they use more durable components in these units? I know Thor gets a bad rap on this Forum but it seems like people that buy these used with 100,000 miles on them are pleased with their purchase.

Depends who you ask.
Mike. Comments are anecdotal or personal opinions, and worth what you paid for them.

They are not the same - you have to remember that CA buys them at quantity, and the layout, trim, etc is built to their build spec. I imagine if you could buy an "identical" one from Thor it would be nicer and consequently MORE expensive. I guess another way to compare it would be builder quality homes versus more luxurious models.

Also you can find lower mileage used CA from CA from time to time. Not all of them are sold with 120-140k or more...you can get some with 80-85k.

I hope that helps : )
