Unless you've got gobs of free time on your hands for a complete R and R, I would get another well kept unit and go camping as soon as possible. And don't park next to any trees anytime soon.
Thanks for the advice, I went this route. We came to a final figure, I get to keep some of the new(er) parts and they're going to haul it away. I figured i'd be pushing my luck w/ the wife if I kept a crumbled up camper around too long anyhow.
