Hi all,
We are currently in the market and just starting looking at class A's. We have had multiple trailers though out the years, and I am ready to get rid of my F350 daily driver and gain some more comfort for the family while driving longer distances.
Anyway, I have been looking at 2-3 year old gas models with only 10k miles on them. Now, when all my cars have over 150k on them with no issues, this seems extremely low. Is there something I am missing? Is this just a case of moderate use, recreational.. Is there something more I need to look into or worry about? I am comfortable with something about 5 years old, any older seem to be "lived in" too much for me. I would think that 10k is 10k no matter what the engine is doing. Same is true for all the components, compressors, hoses, belts, etc.
Thanks
Well just look at yourself. How much time do you have to travel each year and how far do you want to drive in that time. How far do you want to drive on a weekend? Yes this can change once you retire or find a way to work remotely from the road.
My standard plan is to drive my "mobile condo" to a new location and use the toad to explore the area.In the year range you are looking at you should have few problems with anything worn out. Just keep in mind tires are only good for 7 years from date they are made. You will have annual maintenance regardless of miles.
If you have any questions just ask.
