I hope not, but probably is. I plan to put 300,000 on mine.

With proven regular service records, and assuming it hasn't been abused in driving, I wouldn't be concerned about 120,000 miles. It ought to go three times that.

As long as it has had regular maintenance it should be fine.

Proof of regular maintenance and also the driver has not abused the rig.

I can't speak for the engine, but as far as the chassis goes, I've got a 1999 F-350 (diesel) with a little over 300k miles (500k km) on it , almost every one of them hard, working miles, and it still goes down the road just fine.

It's unusually high for a MH, but I wouldn't be concerned if it was properly maintained.

my workhorse w22 chassis under a 39 ft winn chieftain has 149000 on it, and i would take it anywhere. proper service does the job on any chassis.
ps i believe i solved the brake calipher problem myself. i have over 70000 miles on their last fix. it wouldnt go over 15 000 miles before that. i have had three complete replacements.rotors and caliphers. a simple spring on the brake pivot to hold it to the full rest position did the trick for me. i can remove the spring and the rotor temp goes up over 700 degrees in a few miles.
