WHY IS THIS ON THE MARKET?
We, Jim and Jeannie Pender, are long time campers, who purchased this trailer in November 20006 to rehabilitate it for our personal use.We have enjoyed the pleasant interior, the gorgeous views out the front windows, the attention the rig gets every where we go, and the opportunity to participate in vintage rallies. This is the best towing trailer we have owned.


This past winter we purchased an Airstream Excella 34, which we redecorated for a winter residence at Land Yacht Harbor, Melbourne,FL. In June we bought a small motor home to tour North America without towing. Thus we are looking for someone who would enjoy owning our Argosy 24. And we are also looking for our next vintage RV project.


WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS TRAILER
At the time of delivery all systems will be working. At some time in the future something will need fixing. That is our experience in owning RV's we have purchased whether new or used. Although we would be comfortable to take off on an extended trip in this 32 year old vehicle, we will sell it as is without warranty.

Tin Can Tourist Classified Ad Disclaimer and warnings

Sellers - please note - Beware of a buyer scam
If you've received an offer from a buyer (typically overseas) who promises to send a cashier's check for the full amount of your asking price, but he's asking you to send a check for several hundred dollars to a person who will be transporting the trailer. This is not a legitimate request. Don't Do It. If someone really wants to buy your trailer regardless of location, they should be responsible for not only the cost of the trailer, but transportation fees. Use your best judgement here, you're trying to sell a trailer, not pay for your buyer's expenses. The Tin Can Tourists Club offers this classified system free of charge as a service to our community.
