looking to buy 2006 itasca sunrise....but....
Hello to everyone - I've enjoyed coming into this forum for awhile looking for info. It has always been very helpful. Finally registered because of a specific question and to come out of the shadows :)
We are thinking about buying a specific 2006 Itasca sunrise 38J. It has 15,000 miles and appears very clean. We are guessing that in use it was long-term stay and then supposedly under cover when not in use. Our concern is that there is an indentation above the seam line (on the roof). It looks like a branch or large ball hit it (just a guess). We haven't been able to go on the roof to look more closely because of the weather but wanted to know if we should continue to look at this unit or move on. I know it isn't a lot of info. We really liked the interior space and fulfilled everything on our list of wants. But we don't want to find we have to replace the entire roof either. It is currently sitting outside at the dealer's lot and is in northern Indiana and didn't see any signs of leaks inside the closet but wasn't sure if that was a reliable gauge.
Also - can anyone tell us how this unit falls in the line-up of Itasca products - I have found the same floor-plan in a Suncruiser and Adventurer line. So I guess I am slightly confused. The real question is does it make a difference in value which name it goes under?
