new SV305

Just got back from Olathe FordRV from trading our Surveyor SP295 in for a SV305. Love the bigger open floor plan and huge kids bunk area with couch!
Noticed it does tow a lot heavier. My family and I can hardly wait to break her in this Memorial weekend next week. Im hoping for NO glitches!!!!
Have a great weekend!

Congrats, we got the 2013 sv305. So far we loved it! (Family of 5)
We did some mods to make more user friendly for the kids, futon sofa in the bunk area, extend a shower rod in the bathroom and bigger tv in the living room. We realy like the open floorplan and the space.
Enjoy!

Congrats! We actually tried to buy a 305 from Olathe last summer, but after 3 days on waiting for them to figure out when they could do the PDI - we just walked away. Sounds like they worked out their sales issues.

We has bought our surveyor sport 295 from them . Same sales person Renee... We live 180 miles away so did all the dealing over the phone and picked it up a week later on a Saturday. We traded our 295 on it and had a blowout on the way there... They didn't make us replace it. Going on the Memorial Day maiden voyage tonight.

Update... Back from maiden voyage this memorial weekend.... Excellent... We love it... Yes it's a bit heavier than I would like which for now will probably keep us fairly close to home.. But we live close to about 4 nice lakes , button wife and I and our son love it. All his friends loved hanging out in his room playing the wii and hanging out on his couch. Our friends all loved the huge sofa and the room and we got several compliments on the outdoor kitchen. Anyway again I think we made a great move!
