There is a full inspection being done tomorrow by a professional. Also the owner will be picking me up at the airport and then letting me drive the coach to his house which is 20+ minutes away. Worse case is I fly home.

Since you will be running empty it should be OK. Just be sure tires really look OK and are fully inflated to placard inflation. Would definitely keep speed a low as safely possible.
When you get new tires be sure to get a TPMS.

Mileage is a red flag for me. I almost backed off when we bought our 2005 coach with 24,000 miles. The only thing was the owners were personal friends and club members and I knew how it was cared for.

If it's Mohomodel-specific, you might want to put the TPMS you just ordered on hold, too- just in case!

I would also check to see how much documentation comes with the rig. I am not talking about receipts. I am talking about manuals for each and every feature of the coach. Does it come with the schematics?
