My thoughts exactly. Have the maintenance requirements for an eight year old RV been performed annually?

OBob may have been a little blunt and insensitive but I don't think his statement was ignorant. RV's really are a terrible thing to finance for a couple of reasons. First, they are not a necessity as is a reliable vehicle or a home. Second, they are notoriously poorly designed and constructed and retain little value after just a few years. Easy to get upside down. Airstreams and fiberglass eggs being exceptions to the rapid depreciation. A little self restraint and delayed gratification can help get your financial house in order.
with apologies to Dave Ramsey and his devotees, there are perfectly valid reasons to use someone else's money at times.
we financed our motorhome, even tho' we had the money. And we're well aware of the rapid depreciation. we bought a near-new unit, used.

Okay people what can we learn from this poor guy? This is a prime example of why one should never finance an RV. He is upside down with no way out.

Also supports what I am always saying about the RV industry and lack of quality. Quality varies considerably throughout. Is there a user forum somewhere for this brand that might be helpful for this guy? I suggest fixing what you can and just using it til it rots.
