Hi, not sure of your decsion, but we have an 03 Dutch Star. It's very comfortable to live in and drive, very quiet. I highly recommend buying the DS from your folks as long as they have the records as you need to know where the unit is with regards to maintenance. Once a baseline is established you have a degree of comfort knowing you've addressed all the required items. They are robust and very well built and look newer than their age. Go for it and if you have any questions I've been through the mill and know these rigs fairly well. Good luck.
