Not all motor homes have that brocade interior not even your grandma would like, so look around unless you're good at sewing and just want your own fabrics. Our coach is 17 years new and the interior is as modern as if we'd shopped yesterday.
Beaver is a great coach. Add American (Tradition or Eagle) to the mix, but the budget might be stretched too much, too.
Keep your eye out for another vehicle unless you're a die-hard tree hugger. Look for more ground clearance for when you're boon-docking and going over rough roads. Jeeps are popular for a reason.
Older high-quality trumps less-old mid-range. Materials used were better, and should last longer with fewer failures.
Stick to looking for gassers, because you spend more money on a coach with a diesel engine and your budget is tight already, so a gasser gives you more for your buck.
Photo just shows an older coach that was built using checked patterns instead of brocade or print.
