Karen,

It sounds to me that you need a professional to inspect this Bird for you.

The inspector should be well experienced with RV's and if possible knowledgeable about Wanderlodge's.

I do not know the location of the bird but there are several fellows on this site that could possibly help youor steer you to someone who can. See if you can make a deal with the owner to hold it for you. A 30 day$500.00 "refundable" deposit dependant on a good inspection by a pro. Most deals that seem to be to good to be true usually isa bad deal.If you buy a basket case you can spend a ton of money fixing it up. There are a lot of very good Wanderlodges that have been well taken care of on the market now. Don't let the fever lead you into a bad deal. The smoke probably is in all the fabric's and on a hot day would be obnoxious.Be careful!

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Some advice please...

DH found a great deal on a class A. (( we think )) It's a 78
WonderLodge 35 FC with a Cat/ 3208 and 4 speed Allison trans. 175,000
miles. 6 brand new tires. It was on the road on and off till about a
year ago. The guy started it up in Nov. and let it run a while. Brand
new genny. A good one. I forget the name though.
The guy wanted 8000.00. We went and looked at it and it was pretty
dirty. Not trashed. Just dirty. The guys loser chain smoking brother
was living in it. No leaks that I can tell.
I hemmed and hawwed cos all the cleaning would be on me as hubby is
disabled so the guy came down 500.00. He said he wanted us to have it
as others were beating down his door and he was finding thier
aggressiveness rude. So he said he would take the 500 and have the
thing detailed and buy 4 new batteries.....
Now am I wrong or is this too good to be true. Hubby says we could sell
it for twice that. I skeptical. If it sounds too good to be true.....
yatta yatta yatta.....
Educate me.........
