Hi, and welcome to the forum, I have a 2008 RV that I bought new in late 2007 and it did have a strong Formaldehyde smell at first, when I would first walk into it after sitting closed up the smell was so strong it would make my eyes burn a little but after opening the roof vents and maybe a window, in about a minute or two the smell was gone. After about a year the smell faded to being hardly noticeable and today I can't smell it at all even after the unit sits closed up in the summer heat here in south Alabama (I have seen temp readings as high as 110 degrees inside). So all I can say is if the RV that you buy has the smell, it will dissipate in time HTH.
