My parents invested in a used RV in an effort to be able to take us kids on a nice vacation.
A friend of their had the RV for sale and they gave them the chance of a lifetime offer they knew my parents couldn’t resist.
Unfortunately, the chance of a lifetime was theirs and not my parents. My parents ended up getting screwed when they brought the RV home. They found out that it needed to have the refrigerator fixed and then the AC unit. Since the AC unit was a rooftop unit, it was going to be extremely expensive to fix. Mom and dad thought maybe we could through the summer in the RV without air conditioning, but we were heading west. We would eventually be in the desert and that was not a place to be without air conditioning. Dad was going to start looking for a used rooftop air conditioning unit. He went to several dealers hoping to find a cheap AC unit or find one that was used, but he wasn’t that lucky. One dealer told him that he may want to try the junkyard. I hopped in the car with him and we headed out to the local junkyard. Luckily we were able to find an RV that had been wrecked. The AC unit was in good shape and it worked, so we took it home. It cost a little bit of nothing compared to what the RV dealers wanted for the same AC unit and we were able to install it on our own.
