However, if well maintained, that shouldn't be a problem, just something to look out for. Also tires and battery, if over 5 years old, may have to be replaced.

Here's some more threads on this:

I own a 1999 2619. I do not have wood in the structure of the upper shells. The structure is aluminum.

I towed it for 9 years with a Plymouth Grand Voyager minivan. I now tow with a Highlander which tows better than the minivan. But, the minivan was adequate.
