PDI for RV?

I searched and found PDI for trailer and checklists for traveling, but couldn't find one for RV.
We are getting a new 3051 and want to have a list so we don't forget to check/ask anything.

I assume it is a failure of my search/reading skills so if someone can point me to a link I will be very appreciative.

Thanks

You might try search for Motor Home (MH) since most people call all these things Recreational Vehicles (RVs).


Welcome to the site. Both my kids graduated from Marcus High School between Lantana and I35E.

I’ve used this one 3 or 4 times now and have been real happy with it:
http://www.angelfire.com/trek/buenav...PDI_V113_2.pdf

The only thing I feel it’s missinf is to take a DVD and ensure it plays on each TV that has the capability.

I also take a cheap outlet tester and hit every outlet with it.

I'm gonna get my head bit off but here goes. Everyone here owns an RV. You Motor Home is and RV. My 5th wheel is an RV. You won't find a PDI for you MH specific. You should be able to find a Generic checklist for MH style RV's. The systems will very from Entry level to Premium Coaches but the basics are all the same. Best thing to do is find a forum to match your MH.

Eppy's link should keep you busy reading for a while.

You need to add a Manufacturer name to the 3051 for us not knowledgeable of all manufacturers brands and model #'s. Put in in you signature line and it will show up every time you post.

Bring a flashlight, a multi-meter, propane leak tester, ladder and a GCFI outlet tester to your PDI..
Bring a mat or old clothes and be prepared to crawl all over it.

Forest River is the parent company. It has over 100 brands in its divisions.
So it's like saying I have a GM Camaro.
Also many brands share the same model number.
There are also a number of twin brands, such as Rockwood/Flagstaff or Salem/Wildwood.
