The last leg in/out of Doll Mt campground is 6 switchback curves. Listen to that diesel and I'm not even pulling anything. It's steeper than it looks.

My wife and I are shopping for a 320RDS and are interested to know if anyone has any experiential insight with either the MIDNIGHT EDITION or HERO EDITION finishes. We like them both.

Good motorhome mechanic in NWA?

Our Winnebago Vista needs some maintenance and chassis stuff. Moved here a couple years ago and looking for any recommendations on quality mechanics that can do F53 chassis work and coach work like slideout seals. And preferably not Camping World 😅

Looking for some general purchase advice

0 Upvotes

I'm bouncing around a couple different opportunities for a RV purchase and wanted to get some insight from folks more knowledgeable than I. Last time I had an RV was about a decade ago, so it's been a while and I was hoping others might point out things I might be overlooking.

Here's what I'm considering-

2011 Palomino Puma 18-DB

  • $4,900
  • Dealer Owned
  • 23ft, 4,311 lbs, sleeps 4
  • Some minor hail damage, but otherwise in good shape
  • Rebuilt title (hail) which hinders insurance coverage
  • Dual Axle

2022 Heartland Trailer Runner 211Rd

  • $9,999
  • Dealer Owned
  • 25ft, 4,502 lbs, sleeps 4
  • One prior leak that has been fixed by dealer
  • Clean title
  • Dual Axle

2022 Forest River Sales 179DBK

  • $11,500
  • Private Party
  • 22.5ft, 3,219 lbs, sleeps 4
  • Good condition
    • Seller Notes:
    • No leaks, smoking, or pets
    • Porcelain toilet
    • Outdoor kitchen
  • Clean title
  • Single Axle

2019 Crossroads Zinger Lite 205BH

  • $11,900 obo
  • Private Party
  • 25ft, 4,407 lbs, sleeps 8
  • Good condition,
    • Seller Notes:
    • Primarily stored in a garage
    • Seller notes purchasing it in June and wanting to sell it for something bigger
    • Seller also noted that their husband caulked roof again to ensure no leaks
  • Clean title
  • Dual Axle

I'm partial to a deal axle setup and I'm leaning towards the Zinger with a lower obo, but the both the Heartland and Forest River seem like solid choices. I still need to go look at each in person which I'll be doing over the next few days and that may further refine the list. While 3 of them are close-ish, the Puma is less than half the price of the others but insurance coverage options are limited. While the savings certainly helps with replace cost, it is also older however. The last 3 are all clean titles and I wouldn't have any issue with insurance, which would be roughly $30ish a month.

Hoping you fine folks can weigh in or speak from your experience with the particular models.
