    Salt water inundation is the kiss of death in a humid environment. All the metal parts, frames, axles, springs, fasteners, wiring will be flaking away inside a year. A quick flip to an unsuspecting buyer would be really unethical.

    With all the in-depth projects you guys get into. It surprises me you shy away from doing a roof on an rv. It is time consuming. But fairly simple. Keep up the good work.

    Salvage auctions B4 the internet were the domain of those professionals who had shops and salvage licenses. Prices were reasonable. Beginning about 2005 they started opening up to non licensed buyers who often buy remotely only looking at photos. Prices have skyrocketed, I time and time again see people pay more that a good undamaged clean title would go for.
    Pros don't get auction fever, they research what a unit is worth, have a pro inspect it, calculate the repair costs including labor, transport, auction, storage, inspection, sales, title work fees and costs research the value of the repaired vehicle with a branded title, then decide what their bid is and stick to it.

    Hey guys I live in Florida not far from some of the worst flood areas some trailers were almost to the roof I would buy only fresh water damage trailers the saltwater ones are gonna give you nothing but trouble think about it slide out and all electronics are going to rust stick with the aluminum frame fiberglass trailers I've dealt with flood vehicles before look everywhere there's always going to be unseen damage that later on is going to cost you money to fix Some trailers are going to have mildew in the walls that you're never going to get out we'll get people sick and you might get in trouble for selling them Definitely buyer beware I hope you guys luck

    Look at the inside of the basement doors for the waterlines. Saltwater floods create much more damage than freshwater. All electrical components even wiring that was saltwater inundated needs to be replaced. It's really a job for RV pros.

    Although it's likely buyers can get caught up in "auction fever" and can pay way too much for a salvage vehicle, there's also the possibility you're competing with someone laundering illegal drug money. The feds might watch the million-dollar Ferrari transactions, but who's going to care about a salvage RV? Plus, the sheer number of salvage vehicles crossing the block each day means it would be impossible to track laundering anyway. We had a dentist in our town who bought and sold exotics for some "friends" in South America, but as far as I know, he was never busted for it.

    That Salem is a "destination" unit, not meant for pulling like other travel trailers/5th wheels. Let me see what you end up with lol. And it gets me when people weird out about someone "living" in their RV. Whether it's full time, part time or vacation time, every one of them are "lived in" for Pete's sake. Who spends that much money for something built to "live" in just to look at it and/or bragging rights of ownership? Hilarious.

    I'm no authority but my 1998 Monaco 36' Windsor Wall Slide that has been parked must be worth 20K if these flood units are bid up to 12K already I think these auctions must be full of scammers or hard ups. They just pressure wash them and put them on a lot? I know you will need to go through the brakes, air suspension, engine, flush the tanks and mine needs all new windows and 6 tires but then you can redesign it on a solid chassis. Incorporate solar on the roof and electrify them more.

I've come to the conclusion I care less about looks and more about function. Windows can be temporarily boarded over and the chassey is like new. Bathroom leaks bad and caring has seen better days but you know why an RV is way better, because they came with decent roofs. This year on black Friday I bought a 4500.00 dollar generator. It's a start but if I were you and you got plenty of space like me and you want to camping( even local camping is better than no camping). I wish it was diesel but that old 460 is sure dependable. Ya mine is worth diddly squat , the general public wouldn't give me crap for it. Even in its rough condition I've used it in the woods. Way better than a flimsy tent. Ya you got something there. 36 ft is plenty.

Something the rich people appreciated. If you wanted privacy and security you had a motor home.
