New to Ownership

Good Morning,


Looks like we did it and put a deposit on a new 2016 Palomino 8801 TC yesterday. We won't take receipt of it until October 27th (I hope we have some free weekends to actually use it since we don't have a free weekend to pick it up!)


I've done a lot of camping in a LQ horse trailers with girlfriends, but this will be my husband's first foray into camping and our first into ownership.



Looking forward to a little dry winter camping before we finally hit spring/summer for weekend trips.

The dealer is 80 miles away and they want to do a thorough inspection because it has been on the lot for a while. Then they want to spend time doing a walk through. We have something every single weekend until we are finally both free on the 27th and I want to make sure both me and SO are there to learn about the camper. It is nice that the one year manufacturer warranty will begin on pick up.

I bought a 2014 Rockwood Roo 19 in February 2018 and didn't pick it up until April. I had no use for it during the winter and the dealer stored at no charge

Welcome from upstate NY. Nice to hear that neither you nor the dealer is in a rush to close the deal. A good prep. and a good PDI makes a world of difference. Hats off to your dealer, enjoy the new rig, God Bless.
