Hello from Quarryville, Pa.

Very nice. Make sure they turn on all plumbing when you do the PDI and open every cabinet and turn on everything. If there is no tv in it take a small one to hook up to make sure all speakers and video systems work if they have built in DVD. Take a DVD and cd to make sure those work. If they tell you it's all winterized ask them to de winterized it show you the items work then re winterized it. This will allow you to see how it's done. If they say that's expensive say it's two gallons of pink and their cost of doing business. Camping season is just around the corner and you don't want it sitting in repair shop for weeks waiting for something that should have been checked and working by the time it left their lot. Don't sign or leave before everything is in working order and fixed to your satisfaction. Don't let them give you an IOU. Once they have their money you will go to end of line with everyone else. Looks like a great trailer so it's the mechanical non veiwing items that need checked. Plumbing, furnace, air conditioner, scissor jacks, electric jack, slide outs. Good PDI should take at least two hours. Video everything if you can it will be overwhelming. Climb up on roof to inspect it also.

Thanks for the heads up on everything. I told my wife everything you said. We will be sure to do the stuff your saying. We are very excited about the whole thing. Mellot Bro is 10 minutes away from where we live, so we will probably just get our service done there.

We like it too. You need to check out the new Lums Pond as they have upgraded all sites with W/S/E.

We will definitely will try it out. We went there about 12 years ago. It was nice back then.
