The thing to remember is the on-going costs.
Any coach or travel trailer has a bunch of systems and components which take a beating bouncing down the road.
Plan on a lot of time going into the coach (any age or brand). That time comes in 2 versions.
The first is in a waiting room of a RV shop and the other is with a tool in your hand. You can choose.
I fixed most everything on my '77 Palm Beach AND caught the 'upgrade bug' in the process.
Spent a ton of time adding/updating systems and parts.
Lots of fun and a fair bit of money. I am happy for all that I learned and all the help the pro's on this forum provided.
Back to the money, this is not the cheapest hobby or form of transportation you can find.
A ongoing repair budget is a must unless you want to learn to be a motorhome 'gear-head'. (many are and love it!)
