09-17-2007, 03:15 PM

Hi all, I'm looking at my first trailer, a 1997 TM 19ft for $5000. It's a 4 hour drive away so I'm hoping to get some advice before I drive to it.

Being a 1997, are there any expensive maintenance items to consider? For example, fridge or electrical? What's the cost of maintenance items on a TM?

Also, did they move to aluminum frames by then, or still wood?

Any buying tips greatly appreciated!
