two classes of units........... "Lite" and Standard.
Lite is made with lite parts and pieces and do not stand the pace of time well.
last year I purchased a nice clean and dry 10 year old Standard trailer.. and lived in it for 4 months this past winter in South Carolina.. no problems.
also used it One weekend a month all summer, and Plan to do 5 month this winter down south.. and expect no trouble...
older standard trailers are HEAVY.. for a reason. my 30 foot is 8,300 pounds with 1 slide-out. and was a Own owner unit.
Yes the shine on the outside is not so shiny ... and decals are cracked and faded. they are not what makes a strong trailer.
the inside looks New, but original.. so OLDER style.
all appliances inside are also 2004/2005 units and Work correctly.
