We wanted something cheap to learn on but with all the equipment. We also needed a generator because we are not te RV park/Campground type, we will be going out and camping in the desert to wheel.
This ain't pretty but it is in really good shape overall and everything works great, has a 4K generator that will run everything including the AC and has a rear tow hitch to tow the quad trailer. Bought it from an awesome Christian man in Queen Creek for $3500. It is a 1986 Alfa Sun 30'. We wnted a toy hauler but did not want to spend $15K, we wanted to be under that for the truck and trailer so we could buy it with the equity we have in our Commander and not have to take out a loan. Truck and trailer together we have $11750 invested, so, so far we are holding to our plan of big RVing on the cheaper side. Now to see how it all holds up.
One note, buying an older 5th wheel is a PITA, you have to look at a lot of junk that people want to get rid of and the trailers are a lot heavier, this one weighs over 7K. Also, never buy with out testing all the toys, some of them can get rather expensive to replace.
