I think we are going to see this trailer tomorrow, it is being sold by a dealer. Anyone who owns a 4500, have any insight for us, known problems to look for, is the price reasonable ect...?

Thanks Deb

Deb, I can't answer your questions, but I'll make a suggestion that you print out the Buyers Checklist and take it with you. Click here: Buyers Checklist

Good luck!

FYI for anyone who is interested, I've been to see it and its not in great condition, we didn't even bother to use the check list. We would rather class this as a fixer upper, the upholsery was about the best update. We will keep looking.

Cheers Deb

Well that's to bad. 'Course the trailer is 31 years old. I wonder if anything was done in all that time to update/maintain it?

There were several updates on this trailer, but they were not quality updates. For example, the propane stove was painted white to hide the rust. The deteriorating flooring was hidden by carpet, the broken door lock was replace by a padlock, the fiberglass front window cover was gone. That was not what we were looking for. I'm sure there is one out there for us.

Oh funny, because the way they have it open in the ad photo, it looks fine. But now that I look closely after reading your info, I guess I can see that it is just an empty frame

Sounds like you're saying it was kind of hastily fixed up? Darn!
