Hello all,

New to RVing and just bought a new TT for the family. We are waiting till Christmas morning to park it in the driveway for oir 5 and 7 year old boys. It is a 2014 Primetime Avenger 28BHS. Today is our walk through and was hoping to get some tips on things to look for, craftsmanship wise, etc. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new tt. What a cool idea for your two boys..."Look what Santa brought..."

As far as your walk-through, have the dealer show you all systems and how they work. Depending on where you live (It is snowing outside my window right now) it may not be possible to check out the water system, so suggest that when it is warmer, before your first trip, you bring it back in and one of the techs goes over the water system completely with you. Other than water system TEST everything else - furnace, stove, etc.

Where are you located?

Thanks Capt Mike. Located just outside Richmond VA. No snow here yet. We don't typically get much but you never know.

Welcome to the forums from SW Idaho.
Be sure to take a copy of the PDI check list posted above, if you are not sure make them repeat till you are.

Good luck.
