Agreed - to quote someone from another hobby of mine - the Second worst
thing you can do is to run it - the worst thing is to run it :-)
My folks picked up a third hand motorhome a few years back and
we had many problems with the chassis - not the house part. Come to find
out, the first owners drove from Maine to Florida, parked in an RV park for
three months, drove back, parked the RV until the next year.
There were issues.
