Sounds great, one thing is to keep an eye on roof and make sure and keep stuff up there sealed well and it will last for years to come. On my last one , a 2003 I neglected the roof maintenance and it ended up with water damage to interior walls and subsequent trade on our new one as the cost to repair would have been more than the camper was worth. And check date codes on tires as they tend to go at about 4 to five years. hope you make some great camping memories

Thanks I did get up and look at the roof everything seems good no cracks in any of the caulking. I was reading up on a few different products to cover up the seams to make them last longer but it was talking about different types of roofs which I have no idea what is on mine.
The tires are the original tires with the date code of 2011, and they have no dry rot whatsoever that I could see they must've kept them covered., they don't appear to have any where and tear on them that I could see. We get a 300 mile round-trip ride last weekend and the right rear hub felt slightly warmer than the rest. I guess I can pull that one apart and check grease, I ordered a bearing packer and some high temp grease just need to figure out where to get some bearing seals.
