Not new to site but finally posting.
Hello All,
I've been reading a lot of good info on this site for a couple years now and want to thank you all for the time you spend in posting the information.
I'm not new to rvs, I've owned 3 class A's now but all older. Bought my first 2 because I use to drag race and the 3rd we use for camping while playing with the side by side.
I buy old ones because they are cheaper of course and I consider myself a pretty good handyman, on the chassis for sure. The rest I'm learning as I go. The first two I definitely got my money's worth but I think I will be taking a hit on the 3rd one.🙁
I bought a 99 Rexhaul Rose Air this time. Low miles and mechanically sound but..... I have some other issues that I will be asking questions about in other posts. I did get it at a pretty good price and was expecting to spend some money on it. The person I bought from lied about a few things that at the time I wasnt able to test for myself. I should have caught on but I think we fell in love with the layout and overlooked some other things.
Oh well as the saying goes buyer beware and I have learned a good lesson from it. So far most things I have fixed and I will make the rest right too. Then I think we will be happy with it or at least feel confidant that the person I sell it to will be.
