Re: Buying Tips

Thanks, I appreciate that. If I get it and can bear to part with it, I'll offer it to you first. I'm considering buying a Lazy Daze if I decide to FT long term. I want to start small and be able to urban boondock for a year or so. The B190 is perfect. Let me know what you think. I am still trying to...

Re: Buying Tips

Wow, it would be awesome to have your old B! I'd know it was well taken care of.

It's pretty close to us, actually. I want to go look at it!

Re: Buying Tips

Hi Skater, That would be great. It's in Dunkirk. Hope it's close to you. Thought it was posted on the For Sale board: 1991 Airstream 190 w towing package https://smd.craigslist.org/rvs/d/1991-airstream-190-towing/6301252741.html I'm a bit dubious, due to photos, but possibly it's just a tech user is...

Re: Buying Tips

I've never bought used, so this is an adventure for me! I'll probably have to get one with some dents, but hope that's it. Thanks for the tips. Well, they all lie a little bit, best bet is a vehicle w/a history you can look at. The previous 2 owners of my B did not keep any records or they were lost...

Buying Tips

Hi everyone, I finally have cash in hand, after years of looking at Bs. My budget is $8k, so I'll be looking for imperfect Bs. Today, I looked at my first RV ever: an '89 Ford Falcon. It was similar to a B190, but had a small, side wet bath and a small set of benches/bed across the back. It confirme...

89' in San Diego

One I've run across is claiming to be selling through "eBay Motors" and asking for a deposit to ship, then having 5 days to inspect. They'll ask for Western Union or similar. I had one I suspected was fraud. The B190 is in the same city, indeed the same base, where my brother's stationed. ...

Re: 89' in San Diego

Might have been fake. There was a rash of listings for $55xx all across the country. Going and getting my hopes up!

1994 Relisted near Columbus, OH

I remember this one was sold by a member, then the new buyer needed to sell it quickly. Looks like it didn't sell the first time.

Re: 1994 in Michigan

Thanks, Skater. Being a newb, I eyeballed that as 5-10 gallons! This appears to be the same one listed in Grand Rapids on CL. I noticed the fresh water tank under the kitchen sink. Do some models have a dedicated tank for the kitchen? It seems too small to also supply the shower and bathroom. Nope, ...

for sale in Phoenix

What kind of TLC did it need? It's not far from me, I like that the floors have been done (although it doesn't seem to have an oven, which is what brought me to B190s). But, at that price, I don't want to put much into it, besides solar. We Looked at this one today but decided we can't give it the T...
