I hope we are going to be happy with it.

Have most who purchased a new RV had the spray put uderneath the RV? And I'm reading the electric awning isn't so great?

Oh, We pick it up this Tues and do the walk thru. Where is a link if there is one for the walk thru so we don't miss out on anything?

Another thing it is the 24.5ft. and it was $28,000, did we go to far overboard on the price? MSRP was $36,000.

TIA, any advice is greatly appreciated. Pat

For a couple of thousand more you could have bought my 35 foot Cedar Creek with all the bells and whistles. Guess it is an OK price given today's economy

I think it would be wise to get the added waranty on the camper. for the price of it, I will be well worth it. we are on our 3rd FR 5th wheel and have used the extened warranty many times. good luck and enjoy life in the camper.

We did buy the insurance for all the appliances and such.

I need a few hint words to type in for the search on our walk thru this Tues., I'm not finding anything from the searches I tryed. Sorry to be a pain. TIA.
