How much mileage is a good buy for a second hand one class motorhome?

We are looking for a second hand motorhomes. We found several with about 30 or 40 thousand miles. They are models 1998 and 1999. Is the mileage too high to buy? Prices are 28 and 32 thousand dollars. We need all the help we can get in purchasing a unit preowed as this is our first time. We had two pull back, but want to upgrade. Thanks

Your question is so general it is difficult to answer. I have a motorhome with 99,000 miles on it, and it is 34 years old and still in good condition! It depends on the manufacturer, and how it was used or abused by the owner, like a car. The general overall impression MH give a level of care that the seller gave the unit. Prices have been declining recently due to rising fuel prices, which are probably here to stay! There are several large dealerships in the internet, some listing the latest prices of sale where you can compare.
