Looking for advice on buying a 2005-2007 Magna/Affinity

Hi everyone. We have been full-time RVers for almost 30 years--in both motorhomes and fifth wheels.

We are looking to get educated on the potential issues with 2005-2007 Magnas and Affinities hoping to find the right coach soon.

So far, I have had an Affinity owner warn me about fogged windows, aluminum radiators and the Cummins 600 engine.

Would anyone elaborate on the Cummins issue?

Also, any suggestions for this timeframe would be most appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Tim

From what I have read the 600HP doesn't have the issues like the 650HP does, run from a 650hp unless its fixed. That can run $20k+

All dual pane windows can fog but can be resealed. Don't replace with single pane.

Radiator...$6-10k depending on quality. Talk to Eric @Olstrom Custom Coach LLC
On the irv2 forum their is a CC owner that could help as he had his done, do a search.
Watch out for frame cracks at the front steering area.  If cracked it can be repaired at:
