Thanks,

Bill, Thanks for the very informative reply to my question. will the date of the tire be on it? I'm not familiar with the code you speak of. Everything looked good and they will go through it like cleaning the inside and out, couches, awning. They load test the battery. I did notice a tear on the bed slide seal. Is that something I should be worried about?
Thanks again for your help.

Jimmy B.

I'd make an offer of $7900-a grand off, considering what others have sold for.
It is about to be another model year older and the dealer should want to move it. If you are polite, you have nothing to lose...
Good luck.

PS what area of the country r u from?

Info on tire date codes:

We paid $8,900 for our 1997 2720 in 2003. It was in pristine condition, barely used, like new except for a a really small scrape/dent on the exterior.

The nada book is based on percentage calculations, not actual sales. Therefore, it's just a ballpark number.

The most important point is that these trailers have been holding up really well, and are still looking good and providing great service after many years of use.
