we live in So Cal and unfortunately bought a home at the top of the market. People are walking away from homes that has resulted in a decline in our value by over 200K-225K....am over the agony of it all, challenge we have is we are in the military and HAVE to move next year; renting isn't an option; we make too much to qualify for a modification so we are hoping to short sale or worst case walk away too. Regardless, we have been looking at RV's as a temporary living arrangement, transferring and driving across country before we decide exactly where we want to put down our roots, if at all. our kids are both in college so that isn't an issue.
We have decided on Class A, gas; want it to sleep 6 for the occasions our kids come along...we want to save $$ so used is our choice, we found two that we like, one is a 2006 Tiffin Allegro 35TSA with only 8300 miles, it is on consignment in a rvusa lot, it has 3 slide outs and is in excellent condition inside. the left front wheel cover has some damage with two lug bolts missing (my husband says it is an easy fix? we both took it for a drive and it drives very smooth, it is only 59K the owner just came down from 69K to 64K to current price...
the second one is a 2004 Gulf Stream Sun Voyager with 20K, it is from a repo and is pristine as well with more aesthetically appealing interiors, solid wood cabinets...it has 3 slides.
I know about the rv.org and have purchased a membership, my worry is that these are great deals and am not seeing a lot of tiffin allegros for sale, is that b/c there aren't very many or is it b/c they are so durable and well liked that people keep them? would appreciate any advice, words of wisdom...have been impulsive in the past and want to find something we will enjoy living in for a year or so...
