Hilarious. The motor home I bought a few months ago had tile in it. It was all broken and chipped from the floor flexing.

Paid $600. Put a new battery in it ($120). Paid someone to clean it out ($50). Hired a locksmith to make keys ($70). Paid a mechanic to inspect it ($50). Rented the space for a month ($90). Sold for $2,000 three weeks later. Not getting phone calls once an hour from tire kickers and people "looking to hit the road" (Priceless).
