Thank you all !!!!!

My wife and I just ordered our 2020 Riverstone 39 RKFB model and will accept delivery in approximately (12) weeks. We would like to thank everyone, who answered our questions and contributed some excellent advice and honest pros and cons. Your help was an important factor in solidifying our decision to purchase this model. Thank you all again and we'll probably seek more advice in the future. God Bless and always safe travels.

12 weeks is hardly enough time to plan for next summer!

Then there is Amazon beating a path to your front door.

Decisions, decisions! Insurance. The truck. Reservations. WiFi. Internet.

The Black hills was a really nice place. So was Colorado.

Ours was a first rv. A RE34 Cedar Creek fiver. You should have seen the pile of stuff! We needed a lot of stuff!

Sit down - NOW - and give some thought as to whether or not you're going to install something like AT&T Togo Roadlink (or anything else for that matter) up on your roof. You'll need to get power up there and now is the time to work with the factory to get that and any other cabling installed. I had Cat 6e Ethernet cabling pulled from our rear closet to the multimedia center. I also pulled two HDMI cables from our kitchen buffet to the multimedia center as well. My point is, think about what you might need in the future. We full time and I'm still working so Internet and killer wifi is a must (we're doing about 10 GB/day of Internet traffic). Do your design work ASAP, while it's still easy to get done.

Riverstone 39 RKFB Model

Hello to all, In the Riverstone 39 RKFB model is a very different trash disposal set-up, compared to virtually all other RV's. Located in the counter to the left of the sink is a circular cut-out approximately (8 to 10) inches in diameter with a finger hole in the middle to remove it from the countertop. Once pulled out you now have a hole (opening) in the counter to drop in your garbage / trash. The garbage falls down and into a receptacle (trash can) which is stored in a compartment under the kitchen, which has access from the outside to remove your trash bag for disposal. It allows you to do food prep and push all your debris from your cutting board directly into this hole and drops into your trash can. It saves a lower cabinet from being used as a trash can storage area and or also using an upright trash can directly on your kitchen floor. It also allows for empting this trash container from the outside of this RV and never have to carry trash inside. Any and all feedback on this trash removal set-up would be great. Let us know if you like it or not and the reasons why ??? Pros & cons, etc. Thanks for your feedback on this unique feature. Safe Travels.

We have the same trash can setup in our 2017 sunseeker and really like it. Makes it convenient to take out the trash and doesn't use cabinet or floor space.

I saw a mod that someone posted on FB that they put one of the white wire racks to raise the can higher and were even able to put 2 cans side by side to have one for trash and one for recycle, but I am sure it's best to pay attention when using to hit the right can. Plus they could store fresh trash bags under the shelf.

Our previous dealer in Wildwood, Florida called "Alliance Coach is where we purchased our present motor coach. However, the owner died and his wife sold to Lazyday's. It is now called Lazyday's of the Villages, due to its close location to this massive community in central Florida. This is where we purchased our Riverstone 39 RKFB. We heard good and bad regarding Lazyday's RV dealerships, but they kept many of the former staff here and the transition has been nice. Everything with our deal went relatively smooth and so far, so good. We hope things continue this way and we expect nothing less.
