Thanks shum02 and pianotuna, for your additional feedback. It seems the overall consensus is to leave it.
shum02 - Would genuinely love to hear more about why buying an old Cruise Canada / Cruise America vehicle is a bad idea. My partner and I were conflicted as to whether or not this was a positive or negative thing. Con: Has had more usage than a privately owned RV; Pro: Perhaps has been better maintained by a commercial entity? (e.g. like buying a used car from a rental is often a good deal)
Thermoguy, you are the only one to provide an alternative perspective and I wonder if it's because like us, you also have a more limited budget to work within. Thanks for sharing this! Even though I think we will walk away from this one, it gives us something to think about when we are looking at other options.
I'll add that the seller is pretty firm on his asking price, which is the top of our budget, and there is no history of a leak fix in the vehicle's maintenance records (which seem fairly thorough).
