Donde1,
Check for "soft spots" on the top sections, and check for "soft" wood in the pocket stop areas - the places where the lift bars go in to the top section. You'll have to reach your finger in (carefully) and you should be able to feel wood. If that wood is soft, proceed with caution. Try to have the trailer inspected by someone who's familiar with the uniqueness of a Trailmanor. You might even want to contact the factory and ask for tips on what to look for. They've always been EXTREMELY helpful.

Hope you enjoy the TM if you purchase it. We've owned a TM since 1991 (we're on our second - a 2000) & have been VERY happy with them.
