I ran down and took a look at it.
-It is in fair/good shape.
-Looks like it got a lot of use, but was well kept
-I think it has been sitting for a while since last used.
-A lot of fabric inside. And it's holding
a lot of this Oregon dampness. :/
-No Mildew, or major/minor floor warping that I could find. Little to no color differences. No smell.
-A bit of leaking around one of the
windows, looks easy enough to seal.
-Roof looks pretty well sealed up (after-market coat of some sort of paint/sealant) no cracking or damage. probably could use a good cleaning and reapply for the sake of it.
- Side fiberglass feels pretty solid, except at that leaking window. The seams felt pretty solid too, but are in much need of a resealing.
- Fiberglass has no major cracks. has some "age" looking web cracking here and there.
- Damn near all of the cabinet handles are broken. :/
- Bathroom looks in really good shape, seemed like the least water/damp issues then the rest of the moho. +
- Side door looks like it may have been broken into way back
looks like a larger?? after market window was installed and a bolt lock put in
some minor gaps/warping from the installed stuff...
Test Drive:
I didn't get your post in time
Joe Z But I did get to take it on a 5 mile loop.
-Started up as one would expect a sitting rig to.
-Exhaust looked fine.
-Engine sounded normal. (is that even a valid remark
-Belts look old, but far from neglected.
-Same with the
tires. 1/2 tred maybe a little more.
-Drove nicely, Didn't feel like a GIANT boat going down the road.
-Steering didn't float, or pull.
-It's get up to 60mph was pretty good. (pretty much as I expected/figured it should)
-Breaks where touchy at first, but felt solid after we got down the road.
(The last 4 I can compare to driving my Dad's 85 Airstream landyacht down the road. This drove better then it ((as it should))
-Cruz control didn't work
-Drivers power window didn't work
-Windshield wiper fluid runs down inside of the dash, and none to the window
got my feet wet.
Other:
-Generator didn't start up, probably from the tank being below 1/8 full, they said it would start right up if they filled the tank.
-Didn't see if any of the other appliances worked.
-all but like 2 indoor
lights work.
-indoor gauges looked to work.
Dealer Conversation turned to price,
and a lot of; If we get this fixed then this $$. I had to walk away, it was getting so sales pushy. Better to sleep on it anyway. I want to go back and look at again tomorrow. Demand to see all the appliances and
generator work. And see what other advice you guys may have for me.
