Cost for 5th wheel inspection?

Hello
We are full timers and have a new to us 2006 Montana. We have a contact in the Olympia WA area that is an independent rv repairman. Since we live in our 5er full time and travel from job to job we are thinking about having a full inspection done to identify any problem areas and to make sure all systems are running well.

Has anyone had a full rig inspection? And what would be the price for something like this?

Thank you for your insights. Kim

I've done plenty of those. Usually takes me 2-3 hrs (depending on size and number of systems) to check EVERYTHING. Every bulb and switch included.
Price depends on area and companies that do it.

Thanks for your reply. We have found a reliable inspector in Olympia WA that can do a safety inspection for $45. which is less than we expected. So we'll see how that goes. Kim

Sounds like he'll check tires, lights, brakes, and such.

I paid $300 to have my 5th inspected before we purchased it. It took him several hours

We're having ours done. He said it would take 2-3 hours and he charges $395. This is in Austin, Texas.
