Looking at buying a 2013 wolfpack 28wp I think I'm getting a good deal. The wife and I are pretty excited. Any known issues or problems? Also where to buy addons later on

Congrats on the new 2013 wolfpack 28wp. I do not have this model so I cannot comment on any known issues.
As far as add ons... It all depends on what you want to add on?
Camping world will have all of the camping accessories and supplies.
If you need something specific, just ask where to buy it and someone will provide a link.

I went to Walmart and got TV/DVD combos. I figured it was the whole two birds thing.

The saying.. "Killing two birds with one stone..."

Rather than having 2 separate pieces of hardware (a DVD player sitting on the shelf and the TV mounted), it's all in one. I only have to get around to hanging the TV and I'll be done.

I haven't yet, but if you already have the mounting hardware, it seems move TVs come ready to be hung and the mounts are *fairly* standard.

Check out monoprice.com - everyone raves about them. Freakishly cheap and good.

Ahh, ok- so you have the wall mount. In one of your drawers or cabinets should be the mating piece that gets mounted to the TV and then slides onto there...

Do you have that?

Ask your dealer for/about them- I'm almost positive at least one should be provided.

Good luck! If only one comes with it, your dealer should be able to order a second one for a fairly inflated price . But that way, you don't have to move the TV to wherever you want to watch it!

Now I am familiar with that statement. While the meaning is the same I was thrown off a bit with the other statement. Keep in mind that I can get confused easily sometimes.

First welcome to the forum Terier.

As for the Television mount (that is right I type out television so it would not be confused with TV-Tow Vehicle)

Sorry I got side tracked there; as for the TV mount - the one that came with our Roo DID NOT have a second component. The wall bracket had a plate that had various holes in for various mount hole configurations to match various television sets.

The instructions that came with it explained the various patterns and also explained that our particular wall mount bracket did not have some of the larger patterns for larger (heavier) TVs because the bracket was not designed for their weight. It also warned not to use conversion plates( I think that was the term) to try and support a heavier television.

Just my 2¢ !
