Thanks so much for all of the great info guys
I read all of your comments to hubby, and he's now much more cautious and thoughtful about the whole thing. He mentioned that it may just be best to get a trailer (which was our original plan for this year), especially since the truck we just purchased has an excellent towing package.
Many of these things he'd considered, but something neither of us realised was that the motorhome could have a wooden frame (thanks, Grizz!).
We'll see how the inspections go. We can certainly do a good job of cleaning up the interior (he's in flooring and works with wood, and I'm good with sewing and fabric). That potential wood frame makes me nervous, though.
If we decide to purchase, it I'll post photos and a log of the work we do on the board.
