Subject: prepurchase checkout

I recently discovered this service and am overwhelmed. I am in the pre-
purchase mode and am close on one or two units. (75 and 76 Eleganza's). Has
anyone developed a pre-purchase inspection regime specifically for the GMC's?
(I have a generic checklist.) Thanks in advance, I hope I am doing this right,
and I am sure to using this service often (at least as a spectator). BTW, I
live in Springfield, MO.
Thanks, Larry Nelson.
 
Larry,
I do have a mechanical inspectionsheet Which I use to inspect drive
train, Suspension and safety devices on the coach.

I can also tell you several things to watch for as you choose "your
bride". Give me a call 1-877-275-4462
