How To Buy A Luxury Class A Diesel Pusher For Less Than $100,000

[@skyking4501]

Great video sir!! I have believed that there were certain years where quality fell off and you not only confirmed that, you gave me the specific years. This narrows my search. Thank you!! I subed to your channel.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Thanks for the sub! Yes, there really was a golden age for motorhome production in my opinion. And there are still lots of great rigs out there that have been cared for and would be a smart buy these days.

[@DLTJR1959]

Dwayne, your list was great. My father owned 2 American Eagles. A 1999 single slide and a 2005 quad slide. He purchased the 99 in 2004 and the 2005 in 2008. We looked at all the brands you listed back in 2018 when we were looking to purchase. We felt that our budget at that time would allow us to get one of those units in a 2000-2006 year model. Well, as luck would have it, we ended up purchasing a 2006 Wanderlodge 450 Lxi. It was more expensive than our original budget, but it is somewhat satisfying to own a coach that no one talks about, but everyone knows the quality of the unit. Thanks again for your videos. For some reason this one slipped by me. I appreciate your channel and your easy going style. Thanks again.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Wanderlodge is a great RV and I'll bet you get plenty of looks on the road and in the campground. They just seem to attract attention. Thanks for the positive feedback on my videos. It's much appreciated!

[@robertroth287]

While your advice makes sense, I had a different experience with a 2006 Monaco DP. First, getting a loan on a coach that old was darn near impossible. Second, parts were difficult if not impossible to find. My fog lights were dead and no one makes them anymore. Monaco made a great coach but you may need to scrounge RV junkyards for replacement parts. I strongly agree that anyone considering purchasing an older coach have a detailed inspection and fluid analysis prior to purchase. Thanks for the video, Duane.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Hi Robert. It's true that buying an older rig does have its share of challenges. But the rewards for getting such high quality at low prices is well worth it in my opinion. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

Many will waive the rule if they see a photo of the rig which shows it is well maintained, others will not. I would not allow that the discourage you from an older coach. Monaco went out of business and that contributed to my problem with spare parts.

Before buying any rig of that age though, I highly recommend an RV inspection and fluid analysis on the engine oil and coolant, the tranny fluid, and the oil and coolant of the diesel generator if it has one. It pays to know what you're getting.

Lenders are getting really tight on used RVs if you need to finance. I suspected that they are seeing that the bottom is falling out of the market. I heard that several want 50% of the sale price down. Used RV prices have started to slip over the past few weeks so I recommend anyone looking for one right now to wait for a few months. I believe would be a time when patience pays off.

Hi Roy. A lot of RV manufacturers and dealers want to act like the party is never going to end, but I agree with your opinion that the used RV market has to correct at some point along here. And when it does, it will be a great time to buy a used RV. Thanks for sharing your thoughts Roy!

Another advantage of diesels in that year range is they were before DPF and DEF.

The turbo change was the most time consuming and the cost of the variable turbo was $3700 11 years ago. However its getting pretty tired so I'm shopping for something newer. I was hoping to find something in the 20-teens to replace it so not too excited to hear you recommend older units. However I do agree with most of the brand you have stated. Maybe I can find something in the year you recommend.

Hi Don. Older Class A RVs are not for everyone. But they were so well built in those years that it's a challenge to replace them with something more modern that compares favorably in quality.

What is the best way to go about extracting fluids from a privately owned coach? Do you recommend me getting permission from the private seller to take the coach to a shop and pay the shop to extract the fluids from the engine, tranny, and rear differentials? And if so probably have the shop give it a once over, compression check etc. etc. ?

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Getting a fluid sample is easy enough that the average RV buyer can actually do it on their own. I made a video about that and you can view it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5OxomaQba2IgNE . But if it's a private seller and they aren't comfortable with you taking the samples, you could try to find a local repair facility that would be able to do it for you instead.

[@marklindsey9297]

I’m looking at a 07 Ventana. They are asking $72k. It has the 330 Cummins. Model 3933. Is this a quality coach? It wasn’t one of the three under Newmar you mentioned were good inits to buy used. 63,600 miles.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Hi Mark. It could be. Because any Newmar product from those years tends to be worth serious consideration. But I would never buy any motorhome from that era without a certified RV inspector going through it thoroughly first and also getting a fluid analysis on all the drivetrain fluids to make sure I know what condition its in before finalizing the deal.

[@cavananderson3083]

What is your opinion on the bluebird Wanderlodge? I’m looking at between 1999 and 2003 good bad the ugly.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Honestly I haven't had much exposure to Wanderlodge RVs. So I can't really give you a personal opinion on them from experience. But they have a reputation for being very well built overall. You just want to be very careful buying one that old. So make sure that you get it thoroughly inspected before the purchase.

[@TriggerTravels]

It's real easy... Find a 2002 to 2008 Monaco, Beaver, or country coach that was built in Oregon. Tiffin also makes the list.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Those are all good choices for sure. Thanks for watching!

[@BonnyriggRVLife]

After months of research and looking at RVs up to $300k+, we came to the conclusion that the best value for us is a used (2004-2008) American Coach, Tiffin, Newmar and Country Coach. We are a few weeks away from our final purchase. Prices range from$89k - $140K. $140k is at the very top end of our budget.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Those are all great brands from the years that you mentioned. I hope you find the perfect coach for your needs!

Dwayne, thank you for your advice. I’m finding a lot of 2008 models on the market. Since the recession didn’t get into full swing until 2008, what about that year for quality builds?😊

Hi Mike. 2008 is right on the edge of the overall industry-wide decline in quality. RVs made in that year could be a good choice, but just be careful.

[@snap9049]

Although we love our 2003 Kountry Star, we've seen some very nice Foretravel models. Some don't have any slides, but floorplan and fit/finish are impressive.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Hi Jim. I totally agree. Foretravel is a very high quality Class A manufacturer. But they don't make very many of them each year and what they makes is much more expensive than most higher production Class A manufacturers. So I don't include either Foretravel, Newell or Prevost in my lists of Class A manufacturers. Most people simply can't afford them and I feel that they are pretty much in a class of their own. Thanks for mentioning Foretravel though!

[@roneddington7564]

@@RVInspectionAndCare There are quite a few 2000-2005 Foretravels out there under $100,000 or slightly over. I bought a 2000 Foretravel U320 in January for $68,900. It has the highly desirable 450hp Cummins M11 and 6 speed Allison transmission. It had 111,000 miles on it, has solid Walnut cabinets and 14" quarry tile floors. One of the previous owners had updated the light and plumbing fixtures with black, getting rid of the dated bright brass. They also updated the cabinet and drawer pulls. I think that you should have included Foretravels because they're a lot of value below and slightly above $100,000. JMHO, thanks, Ron

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

@@roneddington7564 I think you are right Ron. I automatically assume that Foretravel will be far more expensive on the used market than most other quality Class As. But if they are available under 100K used, they would definitely be a good candidate to consider. Thanks for making that point!

Can you still get parts?even when they are out of business?

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Most of the components for older RVs are made by companies that are still in business and can upgrade them for you if they wear out. But if the company that built the RV is no longer in business, getting replacement body parts for walls, end caps and so on in the case of an accident can sometimes be a challenge. But oftentimes there are still ways to get those parts if you plug into the online groups that own that kind of RV. It just takes a little research before you buy an older motorhome to make sure about what the supply chain situation is really like for a particular RV brand that is no longer around.

Good points, but you really have to think hard about buying the older coaches, 2000 to 2010. But, you had better be real mechanically inclined. Also, rigs with CAT engines are getting harder and harder to find good mechanics to work on them. And parts are a bear to find in a lot of cases. I looked at the older Beavers, but finally bought a 2017 Tiffin Red 33AA that has all I need without a bunch of whistles and bells and no disco interior. Parts are easy to come by.

[@RVInspectionAndCare]

Hi Michael. My personal experience has been very positive with our diesel pusher. I have a CAT C7 engine and have never had any trouble finding mechanics or parts for it. Since many of the older CAT engines are used in lots of commercial vehicles as well, there should not be any trouble getting them repaired. Of course, finding mechanics that want to work on an engine from a bedroom opening above it, can be a problem. But that is true of diesel pushers both old and new. I'm glad that you found the motorhome that you feel fits you best. But choosing an older better made diesel pusher has been a good decision for many RVers that I know.
