I'm looking to buy a motor home in the coming months, but have no knowledge about them. Anyone here have any advice? I think I'm more comfortable with driving a motor home, as opposed to a trailer. I'm thinking about getting something around 20-25', used, priced around $8,000.00 - $10,000.00. Is this realistic for a good one? Suggestions on brands? What to watch out for, etc.etc..??

Thnx

All that California money burning a hole in your pocket there Gramps?

That sounds a little light on the price. My dad has been shopping for a used pop-up trailer and is finding that they are selling surprisingly quickly priced $1000+ over blue book value for around $5-6K. For a motor home, I would expect you to spend maybe double your $8-10K estimate. Just my observation.

No something we have been wanting to do for a couple of years, but I hate driving 6 hours to get away from people in Cal. Here we can drive a couple hours, and be in great shape. I have seen a few on e-bay in that price range that look fair, but since I'm not familar enough with them, I don't know if I'm asking for trouble..
