I have found a 2002 Holiday Rambler Vacationer and I would love any pointers on what I need to watch out for. It has 16,000 miles on it and I am buying from the orginal (sp) owner. I have heard about recalls that need to be taken care of. I am not sure what maintenance has been done to he unit..

Does anyone know what Workhorse it is? 20w or 22w

Thank you for any pointers that you may have.

If it's 36 foot, it's most likely a W-22. Also, if it has 22.5 tires, it's a W-22. Make sure the original owner gives you all the manuals, instruction books, etc. for all appliances & the chassis.

Our 2002 W22 has served us well for 33,000 miles so far. The one you are looking at is subject to the Bosch ZOPS brake recall, so make sure it has been done or get it done before taking delivery.

Yes it does have 22.5 tires and I think I saw the manuals in the coach the first time I drove it. I am going to see it again before I buy so I will check.

Is their a way to find out (and be sure) if the recall has been done?

We are on the road right now in Branson Mo. and the coach is in New Mexico so we will see it again on our way home...

YEs you can get the VIN# and call workhorse. They can look it up and advise you of everything it has or needs.

I dont have their number handy but it can be searched and found easily
