2002 U320 4020 gonna go look at Monday

Hello All,
New to RVing. Inherited a 2010 Winnebago Adventurer 33. Spent time in it last year trying to decide if the rv life was for us and it is. Decided that a DP is a better option since we tow a vehicle among other reasons.
Was looking at Used Newmar Dutch Stars and the salesman at CW called and said they just took in this Foretravel with 80k miles and said don't have a firm price yet but should be just over 100k.
Any advice on what to look for as far as problem areas? Should I order an independent rv inspection before I make the purchase if I like it?
Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Pargolfer,


Welcome to iRV2.


Where is the coach located?


Foretravel builds high quality coaches, but like any other 20 year old coach, it needs to be inspected by someone familiar with that brand.


Feel free to PM me if you want more details on Foretravels-- we sold ours with 170,000 miles on it. Still going strong.

Just looked at similar models on RVtrader. Very well built with great layout. Quality you can trust coming off the assembly line. Looks like in 2003 they added a tag axle for that model. You'll know if it's been taken care of. It will be very clean. If not, than maintenance may be sketchy. Assuming your trading the adventurer in, they will offer low trade in value and higher sale value. Gotcha both ways.
That being said, if it's the one you want, I would pay for an inspection and don't let CW sway your thoughts. Good luck
