Bought in Dec 2015. Picked up in late Jan 2016. Per vin check chassis is 2016. With 6 speed trams. If I am read vin correctly it was the 98 f53 for the 2016 year.

I just did the PDI on my new TT. It took me and my girlfriend 6 hours working together. She did the interior and i did the outside.

They tried to charge me three hours labor. I refused. And this was after warning them that it was going to take a long time and offering them my PDI. I had to unhook the trailer and start to drive off before the service manager relented.

They will try to rush you out in 30 minutes. Don't let them. Do not pay until all the items on your list are completed to your satisfaction. I left it an extra day so the things that could be done, were done.

I still have a bunch of items that will still need to fixed by my local dealer but they all required new parts.

Here is a link to the PDI list I used. Also make note of the age of the tires. Mine were already a year old. It is a four digit code stamped into the sidewalls.

Good luck and my best advice, do not get emotionally attached to the RV. Just do your inspection. Your will have plenty of time later to ooo and aaaa. And do not pay until you are happy with everything either being fixed or at least documented. Make sure everything goes on a Repair Order.

The model year is indicated by 10 letter in the VIN I believe the letter G is for 2016

Everyone has great advice. Main thing for us...don't rush. It will take a long time. On our Georgetown I actually requested someone else to help us. I knew more than than the newbie that tried to do our walk through. Company was very apologetic, as they all are. But once it leaves the lot it's yours and all those smiles and happy talks go away. You now will have to deal with the service manager...and he is "always" busy.

One more: run lots of water in sinks and in the shower to see how drainage into the gray tank flows. The one thing we did not do and we found out dry camping that the shower drainage is very very slow. When we are open to dump the gray tank, the shower drains normally. Now our Gtown is in for this warranty item to be fixed - no estimate yet on when we will get it back.
