Newbie Needs Help

[word]

Hey all...just now getting into the Travel Trailer market and wanted some recommendations. Looking to get a used trailer and have absolutely no idea if any make or model is better than the other. I'm on a tight budget, so when I say used...I mean used. From what I can gather from pictures, the ones I'm interested in have potential, albeit in need of some elbow grease. Anyway...does anyone have any thoughts on the following

1988 Nomad by Skyline 24 ft
1979 Skyline Laton 22 Ft
1987 Coachmen 28Ft
1992 Sunline...not sure on the length yet
1979 Wilderness 24Ft

Anything and everything would be appreciated. As well as any thoughts on what to look for in these older travels.

Thanks all....appreciate the help

Once you get back into those range of years you can expect anything and everything to work or not. For something that old it's on a case by case basis. You can find some remarkable units and some that haven't seen anything running but water into them. Leaks are the #1 thing to check, once they leak from the roof or windows it becomes a lot of work to restore. Also, check running gear and tire wear. Any wear on the sides of tread will indicate a potential axle problem.
