Not planning to leave just yet.  Wink
 
To slide or not to slide is a big question.  We saw a longer version of the model we are now considering, with a slide, and it definitely opens the space up.  If we were retired and planning months-long trips or even full-timing then it would be an easier decision.

Our 28 foot Wilderness had a twelve foot slide that really opened up the camper. When we sold it this summer, it was the main reason people bought it. When we bought our RPod, we again went with the slide, and have no regrets.

I had someone reply to my Craigslist posting, they lowballed me so badly with their opening offer I almost blew up at them.  After replying - politely - that it was too low he replied with a slightly higher but still lowball offer.  This time I mentioned I was a member of a Rpod forum and knew how much other members were selling theirs for and he was still way low ... no reply since.  Tongue

My son gets good deals on Craigslist.  When I listed my van all I got were nut jobs.  I was not impressed.

Be careful on Craigslist especially if their grammar seems too perfect and they refer to what you are selling as an "item" Also if they say they can't make it but will send someone else with a certified check OR if they want your Paypal account information. These are all scamming techniques !

Oh yes, I'm ahead of those games.  I clearly state "cash only" and I will insist that whomever buys meets me at my bank or theirs so the cash can be verified before I sign over the title or bill of sale.  I've ignored about 2/3 of the emails I've received (not including the porn, although that has gone away lately) because of the content or the sender's email address.  An email address based in the UK just doesn't say "local buyer" to me.

Lots of bottom feeders on those bulletin boards.  You are right to be extremely careful.  Good Luck.  Safe Travels.
