Tree damage to my lance camper! Repair estimates $4700~6500! I guess will be shopping for another camper. I would like to spend appox under 15K. I'm planning to retire next year and spend considerable time on the road. Its just me and my boat.

That's too bad bud.
On the up side, it's the right time of year for price up here and lots of good campers in the under 15k or under 10 k.
Good luck shopping.

Kind of like my 1997 Ford 7.3 OBS 4 door pickup. NADA says it's worth 15K. I said heck with that and took out a policy for what it's really worth with a specialty insurance company. Not that much more expensive, same coverages I had but with the ACV at 30 grand, which is where it needs to be, not what NADA says. Best part is the ACV increases every year at no premium increase instead of the other way.

Sorry to hear about your problem. Wind has been blowing hard here in Eastern Washington.If it was not on the truck, you need to talk with house insurance.

Nope, nada value was appox $500 for a 91 lance! I know you cant buy one for that but...

Started looking at 2005+ campers, My lance was a great camper. Bigfoot? Northern Light? It will be just me and my boat, but would like to get sometime nice.
