2017 Sunseeker 3010DS delivered today

Ordered Feb 8th specked out a 2016 with theatre seats and big 4 door fridge. Today, during PDI, noticed the fabric pattern was different from brochure. Side cameras are lower front corner of the coach. Grill propane connector has its own door just fwd of the passenger side rear wheel. Toilet has a sprayer.
Paperwork says 2017. Sweeet!

We ordered a 3051S Forester on Feb 28th...thought it would be a 2016, but looks like we may get a 2017 Too. Sounds like they have made some changes. All for the better, I hope. Getting real anxious to get our hands on it...supposed to be finished on or about April 18th. Will be driving from Oregon to Ohio to pick it up.
Good luck and congrats on your Sunseeker.

Congratulations on the new rig! I know how you feel, we got our new Sunseeker last year at this time, just can't wait to load her up and get camping! Just got Blue Ox system installed today, waiting for the weather and off we go...can't wait!

Hope you have as much fun as we do!

Thank you. Will do pics tomorrow. That would be great Jimone! Noticed today that there is a blind spot on the passenger side cam. The 3010 has the coach door right behind the cam so the door hinge is close enough that the blind spot at the back bumper is significant. Would not be a problem on a mid door rig. Needs to be shimmed out the width of the hinge. I may tackle that if that lower corner is accessable once I get all the Amazon stuff out of the dining room. Wife didnt understand why there was a sway bar on the table.... sheesh.
Cam is black so a 1/2" black block of..... hmmmm... plastic maybe? cut to the contour of the camera.
Drivers side works great! You see right down the side like a gunsight!

Congratulations! You sure jumped right in there with your upgrades. What's the top right photo? I also did the Reflex steering and vent covers.

Sagecoach, the three closeups are the blue-ox trac bar. I followed the instructions packed with trac, so I got to do it twice. Quite simply, the trac bracket that uses the sway bar bolts goes on the side with the exhaust. The big frame clamp goes on the side where there is no exhaust. Fred + Sherry, sounds like you have the same options we do. Fridge, recliners, grill. We also swiveled the pax seat and powered the driver seat. Just finished the sway/trac/reflex today so only the drive to the storage lot. Did notice turns are flatter and steering stiffer. Can't wait to try it on the higjway.

You noticed the front legs hang over the slide, but the seats are level, which makes me think the pleather was pulled back and the rear legs that sit on the slide were cut shorter and the pleather pulled back over and reattached.
