New unit PDI

Wife and I just purchased a 16 Sierra 32qbbs from Jeff Couch RV in OH. What should we look for when we go to pick this unit up? Anyone have this model? Any issues?

Thanks

There are several PDI check lists available here. Here is one example http://www.forestriverforums.com/for...0&d=1366643131

You can search for more. Take notes or video any procedures you think you may forget. Make sure they show you how everything works. If winterized ask them to unwinterize ( watch this so you can do it). The main thing to remember is do not sign any paperwork until you are comfortable everything works. Don't accept " Take it today any you can bring it back later for warranty repair" Spring is a very busy time for dealers and you may have to wait months to get warranty work done once they have your money.

Don't sweat the small stuff , go enjoy it that's why you are buying it,

If you want info on this model, suggest you go to the Sierra sub-forum and start a thread about it.

We purchased new Coachman Catalina in September and our PDI took 2 1/2 hours. Best thing we did was video much of the inspection. We have referred back to that many times in our first couple of trips. Enjoy!!
