That’s a fair warning, but it’s not a forgone conclusion.
Although the other common area for water damage is the front cap from water coming in around the clesrance lights or front window.
Our 03 has some delamination on the cap under the front window. No rot, it had been stored under a canopy most of its life. So it’s cosmetic.
Other than that, had an 05 860 and now an 03 and both were/are very solid and very few repairs, nothing major needed.
I’ll qualify that with we don’t use it a lot so I don’t know how it would be holding up to regular use. But I’m pretty happy with them for being older campers.
