Did I Find a Motorhome I Would Recommend? Inspection AND Walk-Thru

[@kbVACArestatecarsnrvs]

I caught mention of a past Georgetown XL picked up last summer? Thought it would never be seen again lol. Long awaited and look forward to seeing you work your magic on it and make it as nice or even better as the one in this video. Glad it's still going to get your expertise and attention.

[@AZExpert]

I havent forgotten! It's still sitting--waiting for me to have 15 minutes to look at it

[@Dabsfordays3]

The thing to remember when re-installing a roof vent with a removable vent cover is to dicor first wait a minimum of 12 hrs to have a skin form on the dicor that way it doesn't get stuck to the lap sealant.

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for the comment

[@williambradley2562]

Thanks James for this Valuable Info on Roof inspection & Maintenance … Also the inside Tour was Cool 😎

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@philw7174]

Thanks for this inspection and tour. Happy trails!

[@AZExpert]

You bet!

[@michaela.aguilar2921]

As always, your video always presents something I wasn’t aware of, like heat-strips in the ACs. I’ve often wonder why the propane furnace isn’t offered with a heat-strip. Would eliminate the need to carry an electric heater.

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@badgerpa9]

Thanks again James for another video, I know the video is not your real job but you do an excellent job on them explaining things. Looked nice, I do not think I would buy a gas class A, I am not fond of many class A prefer a solid bus but they sell many every year and are a less expensive way to get out there. Stay safe and healthy James.

[@AZExpert]

LOL Thanks! and No its not and sometimes people forget that :)

[@CozyLivingMachine]

I feel like you have a lot to offer the RV industry in terms of training and construction-method advice. The benefit to the industry would be potentially significant savings in warranty repairs!

[@AZExpert]

And yet here I am cleaning up their messes lol

[@dodgeguyz]

We have a 2012 Georgetown 350TS and it has held up very well at 45k miles. I’ve seen newer ones that don’t look no where near as good. I consider the Georgetown XL an upper level class A. It’s all in how you take care of them.

[@AZExpert]

It's true with any coach

[@harrystone8847]

Just washing my ear. LOL. I like your humor. Thanks for the walk thru.

[@AZExpert]

lol Thanks for watching! :)

[@reneepetit8206]

I do enjoy your videos. Learning and weeding out coaches along with our prior purchase experiences. That one is a nice coach! Please keep them coming. So far I want a tiffin 35 CP. keep dreaming huh

[@AZExpert]

Sure we can go with that

[@marychristie6194]

I am really learning a lot about the roof-Thanks for these videos-I have a Thor Aria DP 3401 -🚌🇺🇸👍🏻

[@AZExpert]

Glad they help! Thanks for watching! :)

[@michaelfasciani537]

You had me laughing out loud with your outtakes man!

[@AZExpert]

LOL Thanks! Glad you like them

[@DavidHBurkart]

Thanks James. Nice Georgie, but I am amazed at how much wear a coach takes in such a short period of time. Maintenance & storage are always the most important factors. Thanks for the FRP tour! Haven't seen many of those. The hair looks good btw!

[@AZExpert]

Good point! thanks :)

[@DavidHBurkart]

@@AZExpert I was wondering regarding those creases; Would this be a practical application for applying Eternabond tape over the creases themselves, either before or once those creases began to fray? Or, would that be just another misuse of eternabond tape?

[@geo1815]

Lots of great information thank you

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@terrytinagero777]

Thanks James

[@AZExpert]

You're welcome

[@masterDarcy13]

You're editing gets better and better 👍

[@AZExpert]

You think so? Thanks!

[@LayloNewt]

Nice starter for newbie and less expensive being gas.

[@AZExpert]

We agree!

[@pski]

Man, you make me nervous when you walk on the edges!

[@AZExpert]

It's where I live man

[@robertburgess6100]

Pretty nice for gas Rig.

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@HappyQuailsLC]

I think they deliberately left the strip pf primer in the anticipation that the Dicor would be added along the cap seal and that it would stick better to primer than a glossy paint.

[@AZExpert]

I'll go with that too.

[@fordracer1415]

Thank you so much. I finally get to see one with the same roofing material as mine. I have a Solera by Forrest River, funny my cabinets are built the same way. Someday I might swap out the face frames for real wood. What do you recommend for waxing the roof; is there a spray on type or do I have to Karate Kid it 😜 Thanks again.

[@AZExpert]

Wash with wax in it already, Maguires

[@webcrum]

Great video, how can I contact you to get a inspection on my rig? I’ll be in Surprise area soon. Ed

[@AZExpert]

I appreciate the offer but I am SWAMPED. I have no spots available for the foreseeable future!

[@goththicus]

Nice unit with the amenities. When shopping for a used RV should one be concerned about the mileage, in addition to the roof?

[@AZExpert]

More concerned with how it was maintained

[@dankarau2307]

Just to be clear...are we supposed to seal the vent covers down? LOL

[@AZExpert]

NOoooooooo lol

[@carmencolon3520]

Just walked away from a third rv. Would I ever get one 🤔 is questionable. I am hopeless 😞 😢.

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching!

[@diannrathvon4506]

I never see you inspect the seal around the front windshield. Or do you not include it in your motorhome inspections?

[@AZExpert]

You cant see anything from the roof. It's part of the exterior check

[@diannrathvon4506]

@@AZExpert thanks

[@eddiemcsherry9413]

We have the same coach but a 2019 , what product would you recommend for waxing the roof ? ( in a earlier video you mentioned a spray on wax )love your videos by the way .

[@AZExpert]

Wash with wax in it--like maguires

[@sailorjohnboy2325]

I was thinking, why is the dicor always tan when James does an inspection? Then it hit me, desert, dust, duh...

[@AZExpert]

It just gets dirty

[@garyag45]

Nice, bit I would be concerned about a gas engine in the mountains 😎🦅👍🇺🇸

[@AZExpert]

I wouldn't be

[@KevinCoop1]

James, Wow, you got tongue tied on some of this one! Dumb question, since the roof is fiberglass in plastic, could the creases in the front and rear be reduced by slowly heating with a heat gun? I’m thinking it would relax and smooth out. But would probably reappear later with use. I would have thought the cabinets would have had more real wood. I’m thinking again, happy with Jayco class A we purchased. Respectfully, Kevin

[@AZExpert]

Yes 100% they can be relaxed out, but they would likely come back over time. Thanks!

[@stevendunn264]

Have you shown an A/C that was loose?

[@AZExpert]

yes

[@stevest.martin3940]

I though about a Georgetown for about a second Then I screwed my head in tighter And Bought A Tiffin.

[@AZExpert]

I am partial to tiffin

[@jerryhoxsey6467]

Too bad the fold up extension on the kitchen blocks the entry door

[@AZExpert]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@Desertvanlife]

Hello James .. do you do side jobs if so where do I get in touch ....???

[@AZExpert]

I'm not taking on any jobs for the foreseeable future--just too busy

[@Desertvanlife]

@@AZExpert ok no worries .... thanks for getting back to me ...... fyi big fan of the channel.... i learn alot 👍 God bless

[@ramonheard2758]

Isnt there any fall protection?

[@AZExpert]

Where would I attach it to? worst case it's 12 feet.

[@cwshumate914]

Seems like all roofing materials have some pitfalls, especially if the manufacturer engineers their products incorrectly.

[@AZExpert]

true gelcoat fiberglass or metal would be the best and most durable. filon and frp is a cheap way to claim it's a fiberglass roof to unaware buyers.

[@kb6lcw99]
