I just bought a 1975 GMC with 55,000 miles on it. I paid $10K with the full intent of putting another $10-12K into it to get it ready like I want. I wanted the GMC and was willing to pay the price. Would you be prepared for that? $2700 for new wheels and tires (FMCA program) I need to get the carb rebuilt, new front wheel bearings, a couple steering parts, AC compressor, Air compressor for the air suspension and whatever else I may find. Then I can start on the interior.
The BS about Winnebago being better is just that. Read about the peeling fiberglass roofs on some. I had a Newmar Mountain Aire and that had quality. Get out of the low end products and you may get what you paid for. I had to get rid of the Newmar because of 6 steps up to get in and steps are my problem. The GMC has only 1 step to get in.
