Another question.. On the inspection what type of items did you find mostly? Cosmetic or items that did not work?

Our 378 was mostly cosmetic. Broken tile, scratched counters, broken trim etc. Unfortunately had some mechanical also. If you can, live onsite for a couple of days to be able to check everything.

Congrats. I know you are looking forward to picking up your new RV, but please do not let your excitement overshadow your better judgement. Do your walk thru prior to signing paperwork. If you find any issues, insist the dealer correct them before you sign. You loose your negotiating power once the dealer gets paid. There are a few good dealers, but they are not in the majority.

I wish we could just camp out on site but that is not an option for us.. We have a handicapped son and he will only have a sitter for a day.. But we do only live two hours from the dealer so that will help..

On our last motorhome I did most of the repairs after the first couple because if it dont belong to you most folks dont care and do a lousy job is what we discovered..

I will say it may be a nightmare for the dealer since I was a inspector for Boeing on the 747/777

Best advice I could give: Take someone who has lots of RV experience with you. If you go through this as I did the first and second times, you will hardly even know what to be looking for.
