Hi boys and girls! I'm probably going to "pull the trigger" tomorrow, on a 2003 Holiday Rambler Vacationer 36DBD. Only 7700 mi. Any thoughts, opinions, or observations would be appreciated!
What would or should be expected? I'm going to have all the fluids changed, as well as new tires. I would also believe the batteries would need replacing. Thoughts, advice, PLEASE!!! I'm very new to this. It's my first experience with a MotorHome...
Thanks,

Dylan

Is this on the RR4R chassis? If so are you aware of the trailing arm issue and has it been take care of on this coach. If not do a search here as this is a safety issue that although fixable is a considerable expense.

Make sure the brake recall is done ASAP.

Dylan, not unsafe, but you should be aware that the brakes can hang up at times and will release usually after a 30 minute rest. Do a search on this site for workhorse brake recall. tomorrow someone will know the recall number. There are many pages of info. Check the workhorse owners forum and ck stickies.
