Hi All: Hoping someone can help out. We are looking at a Monaco Windsor 2004 which has 85,000 miles on it but in great shape. Just wondering if you think this is too many miles on a 400 HP cumins?

We are newbies!!
thanks!!!
Doug

As long as the regular maintenance has been performed and the coach has been used regularly... 85k is not a problem at all. You do not want a coach that had 85k miles put on it the first year and then has sat for 5 years. Regular use is much better.

You should check their maintenance records, but 85K miles is young for a diesel. It does not even figure in the blue book value.
