Hail Damage Question

We have a 2 month old Keystone Cougar 5th Wheel. Saturday, we had several inches of quarter to golfball size hail that lasted long enough to pile a foot deep against doors, etc. and is still there in places today.

It broke the bathroom vent cover and bent the vent, as well as allowing rain in through the vent into the bathroom. The bathroom floor was wet and it ran under the wall and into the bedroom, wetting the carpet for about 2 feet into the bedroom. It does not seem to have run through the floor underneath, as we got it mopped up within an hour or two and have run fans on it since to dry it out. Sunday, my husband swept piles of hail and leaves off the roof and checked it over, and it does not appear that there is any more damage, but we're not sure.

We also have an 08 Wildcat that we have had for sale, and it is mostly destroyed, but was more out in the open. The difference in damage is incredible.

We are concerned that even though there is no visible roof damage, it may have damaged the roof framing, etc., with the force that it appears to have been coming down (we were gone at the time). Has anyone had experience with hail damage that can assist with what to look for and ask?

The insurance company wants an adjuster to come to our home and inspect it, in place of our taking it to a repair shop for an estimate, but we aren't sure if that is the best route.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
