The 440-3 in there is worth more than the asking price as far as I know.

Although old stuff is still old stuff.

I have the only mid entry diesel pusher in grizzly Rv park in West Yellowstone.

DaveS has one of the only two bladder sealing slideouts here.  The other is a Prevost

"If someone didn't want to put a little work in to it, they could scrap or salvage it at very least."

Wonder why he doesn't follow his own advice?

From the looks of it is says diesel powered, Id like to know whats in it and how bad it really is.
I contacted seller and he has no idea. Its most likely a 504 cummins or an 8.2 detroit
