Would love to join you all too, but our options for this year are few, especially since we are dropping rig at dealer Oct 28 for warranty work. Who knows how long they'll have i, so winterizing beforehand. Next year we can plan!!

Well guys sounds like I can be part of the club now, just finalized the purchase and picking it up tomorrow! Thanks for all the advice, can't wait to try her on this trip. Just out of curiosity, what kind of mileage are you guys getting w/out the toads?

Then when you are at a campground the folks who walk by looking and then turn around and look again, finally stopping and asking if you mind showing them the inside.

p.s. We had a Seneca and traded it in for this unit...no regrets...great move on our part

Where did you get that? We are in So. Calif too and our new one is suppose to be here next week. Same exact model. What color did you get? We are so excited to get ours. We have been waiting for 2 months.

We found one on the lot at Motorhome Specialist RV in Alvarado, TX Just got lucky. Our color is Sunset or something like that. We decided to drive to TX to pick it up. Distance doesn't mean anything to us. Hope your buying experience is as favorable as ours was in TX.

Picking it up in Ft Meyers tomorrow; 2048 miles, 1300 of them which were from the factory delivery down here. The rig is black and silver with some red accents in there but prodominatly black. I lucked out on this one for sure, was looking for a good while for the 8.9 cummins and this is like new.

So if you guys don't mind chiming in again, what, in your opinion should I carry spares of; pumps, electrical, etc. besides the obvious tool set, rescue tape, fuses etc. I guess I'm asking what things break that need attention?

As we found out the hard way hydraulic fluid. The alarm on the jacks drove us crazy because we were low. BTW the fill is in the generator compartment and you need a small diameter flexible funnel.

My 5th wheel ate water pumps. I plan to carry a spare.
Understand SaniCon hoses can develop pin hole leaks. Bought a spare.
Some RV park sewer caps are jammed. Carry a large Channel Locks.
An assortment of power plug adapters.
Standard sewer hose (just in case)
