Thank you for all the advice, seems the best way to go is make sure I get a unit that has been well cared for.
Saw a 2000 Coachman Catalina 21 on the internet just like I want but was sold already (and a little expensive at $23000.)
I will just keep looking.

We have a 2006 Aspect 26A and love it. It is the perfect size for scooting around, can tow our Jeep just fine, and it drives like a big van.
Had it for five years now and although we are getting ready to upgrade to a new Aspect, probably the 27K, and the only complaint I really have is that the bed is too small for two people for more than two weeks. If it were possible to put in a queen bed, I'd be keeping it I like it so much.
We've spent some money upgrading things like the TV, sway bars, and shocks, but overall, with it being our first motor home, I am more than satisfied with it.
We've looked at lots of coaches over the last two months and very few seem to have the same quality "feel" as the Winnebago, and those that do cost just as much. Personally, a big selling point for me is the longevity of the company and the responsiveness of their people. Plus they control most of their supply chain in that they manufacturer their own furniture and even produce their own extrusions, so they can make you a part from something that is decades old.
You cannot go wrong with a Winnebago.
