Find a floorplan that works for you . Hire an rv inspector before you buy.
At the age of units that you are considering, its all about condition and history of maintenance. A lot can happen to an rv in 10 years.
Renting one first , to get a floorplan and driving feel , will be money well spent.
Consider the following when deciding a floorplan.
Things you need to have easy access should be easily accessible and not hidden.
Find the accessibility of :
the slideout motor, water pump, by-pass valves and low water drains.
As others with experience have mentioned , if slideout‘s are in the equation then be sure you have full use of your rv floorplan when the slides are ‘in’.
In the event of a slide motor malfunction , you might need to function with it closed for a period of time , longer than you might like.
