is this a good deal???

it's not far from where i live which is the main draw to it. however, there's no compost toilet or shower head which is important to us since we'll be living in it full time for a bit.

so there's another question: how difficult/expensive is it to install those things?

also, anyone know how many miles you can get on these vehicles?

thanks fam!

If you want a tiolet and shower you'd probably be better converting one yourself.

I'll sell you a 5 window Thomas with only 63k miles and 3300 original hours for the same price.
Good tires, no rust, high headroom, and air ride included!
I'll even paint it whatever color you want.

I'd sell my Vista for 2/3 that price. it's painted with upgrades but empty inside like my soul.

Maureen - EastCoastCB is one of the folks on this site that I look up to the most. I *think* he's telling you that the price on your first find is way too high.
