Snatch it up now unless it shows signs of leaking. Has it been under cover or out in the open?

What chassis is it on, Ford E350?

No signs of leaks,,,stored outside,,roof looks like one pc on rubber roof....that rear corner bed/couch may be a pain...

Under the bed is a thing that says "by pass"...she said that so you don't put antifreeze in the water heater....why wouldn't you ???

Possibly. They come both ways. Get us the model number off of the water heater and we can tell you. Open the door on the outside of the RV that covers the water heater to see if the model number is there.

She said the fridge is gas or electric but does NOT run of invertor,,,is this correct ?? That would be correct. If you are not plugged in to 120v, or running the generator for 120v, the refrig runs on propane.

If it's an older MH, then it is quite likely that the water heater is propane only.

I'm assuming "fried" is supposed to be "fridge". Most likely that is correct - it will run off propane or electric (when connected to shore power or generator) but will not run off electric when not on shore power or generator.

"newer tires" is not saying anything. Check the code on the tires to see the actual age.

Would have to know the age of the MH to be able to guess if $29K is reasonable or not.

where are the codes" on the tires,,,and how do you read them ?? Thx

fat fingers :)...motorhome is a 2006....tires were new last year

Need age of tires.
NEWER TIRES over 5 years old need to be changed if the unit has just been sitting with the tires uncovered.
