3rd owner, last person had it 20 yrs.
I definitely need a new top tent and seal, but for the most part it's all running as well as I'd hope from someone who has had mechanics do regular maintenance. It's had the transmission rebuilt and has the transmission cooler added. And he passed on all the records of who did what, which is awesome.
I've been lurking a bit before my purchase, so thanks for the tips - I'm at the tub of towels stage right now... and adding car-play and a backup camera.
There's a shop in Kirkland that does tops that I'm going to hit up for an estimate, I'm not sure I want to DIY that so it seals properly, and I may want to have them lift it as I'm thinking the propane might be a little easy to scrape - wondering if that's been an issue for people or not.
Pictures and links to must-read threads most welcome.
Looking forward to some happy camping (and not crawling in and out of a truck bed with 55 yr old knees)
