Hi,
Do you happen to have any photos of your rig at night with the outdoor lights on? I just noticed the GT5 doesn't have spots or porch lights.

Only outside light I have is the awning light, the gt5 is supposed to be backlit but I haven’t seen mine do it yet

Ok, thanks. We might have our inspection this week so I'll ask about the back lighting. Are there step lights?

Yes they come on when you grab door handle, very nice, also I bought an additional step as the distance from 3rd step to ground was a good bit for my wife works out better

We bought ours back in December. We have used it twice, but it has been in the shop for the past month due to the roof recall.

We bought ours last Friday and the roof was already repaired. We hired a tech to inspect everything for us. There were about 20 items that needed to be addressed. It took almost four hours.

It should be home this week or next. We can't wait!
We made a reservation for a site that's about 30mi away for the shake down because we have 5 trips planned for the rest of the year!

Since this our first Class A my husband signed up for a driving class. We are so excited! The instructor is coming to our house we'll do the classroom work here and then drive. It's about 7 hours. I don't think I'll be driving but I'll learn a lot as the copilot.
We watch youtube videos about backing into spaces too.

Hopefully, our GT5 will be home soon because the course is April 20th.
