What immediate problems did you have with it?
Had a few. On the way home, CA to CO, Loose battery connection, hit a bump and the entire MH shut down, buzzers, warning lights... but everything came back up almost immediately except the Check engine light... that was nerve racking for a new owner. Started raining, no windshield wipers... 1st trip out discovered electrical problems (shorted shore power cable) furnace blowers had worn bearings (squealing), slide-out motor working real slow and need help to move the slide out, it came in okay...replaced the motor.
Did you buy it from a dealer or privately?
Bought from a dealer...won't recommend him.
Did you have it inspected by a mechanic prior to purchase?
No, my mistake but the items which need fixed were only slightly more than the cost of a full up inspection. If I were to do it again, I would definitely have an inspection done.
What seems to be your most frequent mechanical problem with the motor home out on the road?
Only been on a short trip since brining it home
Did you find out later that you paid too much for it?
Still think I got a good price on it, so no don't feel I paid too much.
