Found a 2000 skyline nomad m-2655 29' 5th wheel , large dinnette and couch slide out. used as storage at a tennis club. Bath and shower, bed never used. Frig is full of food and being used , Kitcken alittle used and needs cleaning. The rest looks in pretty good condition, upulstry ,carpet etc. Outside is dirty and under a pine tree , but paint and decals are good. Needs to be cleaned up .

Asking only $8500. Nada is $11,070- $14,840

I told the owner to clean it up and remove the stored stuff inside and I will come buy it tommarro . Tires look ok and it has the axles reversed for a 4x4 truck to pull it.

Seems Like a killer deal except the frig and air conditoner being used all the time and the dirty kitchen(lower cabnets had stick food spatter) next to a trash can sitting there. Air condition exhaust ducts dirty,,,

Its a 10,300 gvw , aliitle bigger/heavyer than I wanted, But it seems like a good price at $8500 for a 2000 28' large slide out, awning etc.

We had a Skyline travel trailer for about 4 years and were very impressed with it. For the price, it was very well made.

I just got a Skyline unit after a year's research. I found that Skyline, H. Rambler, Artic Fox are by far the best built mid range units out there. (of course others may differ)

Were I you I would plan on buying new tires right off the bat. Even if you have to buy a new frig and AC soon it would be my guess that you will still come out ahead.

The dealership that I bought my unit from said that Skyline were the units that the oil drillers prefered because they held up will under heavy use and travel over rough roads.
Sure hope he was right, and I sure he is.
