Ultra Lite 2606 ws on order

We wanted it our way, white exterior no furniture etc. So we are getting it our way Should be here in about 6-8 weeks. My question...Doing the dealer walk though. Where should our attention be placed? I am pretty comfortable with the systems, how slides work etc, not our first rig. But where do we need to look for problems? Delaminations? Wheel well exposed wood? Anyone seen a list of things to check off when doing the walk through? Scott

Scott, if you do a search I know you will find quite a few opinions on pre-delivery checklists... Nice unit. Gary

Be sure to check the roof out good. We looked everything over good but I didn't feel the need to climb up on the roof, my bad. After getting it home I got up there and it's a mess. It is bubbled up in several places and where it is laying down you can see where the staples used to secure the plywood are sticking up. Now we have an appointment to take it back to the factory to have the roof replaced.

I did some searching but was using the wrong tags. Man that roof is a mess and yes, it is high on my list to check. Cannot believe a company would let that leave in that condition! Scott

My plans for furniture are:

For sitting will be two nice ikea chairs with ottomans. One is a rocker and one is a standard chair. Both are under 500 total for chairs and ottomans. For the dinette I will purchase a double drop leaf table that, when leaf's are down, will be less than 12 inches wide, will sit against the slide out wall and hold two kitchen chairs. We will have a total of four chairs but two will live in the shed at out site. As for a bed, we will toss the mattress that comes with it and replace with a 10 inch thick foam mattress. That was we have comfy stuff all around, weighs less, can't have people stay with us, and overall takes up less room. Scott
