I could use some volunteer help in putting together an 'Articles' section. Just off the cuff I can see articles on the following topics being useful:

1) How to Sell Your Coach (Stuff that Pete mentions above)
2) How to be a Buyer (What to do and what not to do when personally viewing someone's pride and joy)
3) PDI (What to look for when buying a coach, Pre-Delivery Inspection)
4) Cost of Ownership (Can I afford to maintain and run one of these beauties)
5) Transaction Mechanics (Escrow accounts, expectations, transferring money and title)
6) My First Drive (What to expect on the way home)

Please add to this list. Any takers on writing some of this stuff? I'll sign up for number (4).

I can add buttons to the top of the Classifieds directing folks to Articles and to Escrow and other useful Services.

I'll sign up for 1&2 but I'd like the members to post some suggestions in this thread as I'd like it to be a "we" thing. We all purchased and sold cars, rv's, hot rods, classic cars and motorcycles,tractors, etc to and from private people and I'd like to get everyone's suggestions on how it would be easier and a more positive experience as both a buyer or seller. Then I'll tie it into 2 documents in word and PM them to you to set up in the forum in whatever format you can use so everyone can view them.
Number 3, the vintage birds guys have a great checklist, maybe Harvey will allow us to "use" it??????
5&6......let's see who signs up, the drive home is pretty easy, the money thing gets "sticky" in today's "wonderful" world if you get my drift and you do not want to be liable if a deal goes south, this is between seller and buyer PERIOD!
