Finally did it

After over a year of trying to decide what to do we finally ordered a 2016 Silverback 29Re yesterday from Couches Rv . We hope it will be as good as our 2003 Cardinal. Now the waiting begins.

Congrats ! Couch will take care of you. You should pick it up and do a long PDI and spend a few days at a local campground to shake it out before bringing it home .

Yes we ordered one and yes we plan on spending 3 days at a nearby campground. Can you recommend a campground?

We stayed at Cedar Brook Campground near or in Lebanon. Couch Nation recommended them , had a pull thru full hook up.

Any feedback on Couches? I see they have very low prices on the Silverback. A lot cheaper than anyone near me by at least $8,000.

We visited Couches, but ordered from our local dealer. Couches wasn't interested in a trade, and the extra at our local dealer was worth it for the close proximity for service. Interesting thing we learned there, though, was the L couch pieces did not match up, so we ordered with a standard sleeper sofa and 2 recliners so we will have the flexibility to position the chairs where we want for TV viewing.

finally did it

Ordered our silverback 2 weeks ago the paper work went smooth . They gave us a fair price for our trade in . We can also sell it our self. The price of the new trailer did not change with or without the trade in. Local dealers played their game one price without a trade one with a trade.Either way couches beat their prices. Talked to a guy last week that ordered a 33IK from couches and had it delivered here to Maryland about 4 months ago no problems with the unit or couches. They live in full time . Hope this helps

I was. Very satisfied with couches.

I worried about service with local dealer but then read reviews and found out local dealer's service sucked already even if you bought from them. Add to that the fact the local dealer typed up a fake invoice and was charging extra for items that were included with the option packages they had alReady charged for to make their discount look better thank it actually was. I call that lying.

Couches on the other hand was straight up no bs, no fakery. Easy to deal with. Besides their are probably a dozen FR dealers in town if I had a real problem (but haven't!)
