Waynesville ! It's amazing that there would be a Foretravel hidden there, it's a small village and I drive through it all the time and I have driven nearly every street and never thought there may be a coach secreted there. More amazing is that it makes Dayton the most populated area in Ohio for Foretravel's.
I am certainly no expert on Foretravels, the lack of miles will make certain parts of the coach very desirable, they will be like new, but there are still components that will have aged, belts, hoses, fuel lines, shocks, slide seals, suspension air bags. An older washing machine would most likely leak. Moving parts will not have been lubricated and exercised, brakes, valves, bearings, shocks.
Springfield Truck Center is a great "mechanical" place and they are very familiar with the Cummins engine. The Coach features should also be checked out, I am "newer to these coaches" and not familiar with the slides, there are more knowledgeable owners locally who may be able to help you.
I suggest that you take it for a long test drive, take it on smaller roads to I-71 and a good 20 miles on it to see how the coach performs and handles.
I hope you find a diamond in the rough.
These are amazing coaches, beautiful to drive and spend time in.
If I can be of any help please feel to contact me
