The value of a Wanderlodge varies a good deal with condition, colors, and features beyond just miles, length, and years. A good place to start is the Bill Board (classifieds) on this site, www.birdconnection.com, and autotrader.com to see what the asking prices are for similar coaches. Be sure to compare rear bath to rear bath, and side bath to side bath.

If it truly does have 30k miles, look for documentation to prove it. It could have been lived in for much of the time, or simply neglected. Either of these will cause more wear or damage than miles, I'd rather have a 200,000mile well maintained coach's driveline. New bearings in the engine (installed) are not much more than a new refrigerator (installed), a new A/C unit, or a new furnace, or even a pair of tires. Ditto for the generator useage.

If all systems are good, and the engine/driveline survey from a reputable Cat diesel mechanic is good, it is usually hard to wear this coach out.
