We finally have our new 2010 RT 210 P ordered on Dec 27, 2009. Haven't done any camping yet as I picked it up and drove the 150 so miles back to the house last Saturday and then left for a week long business trip. We intend to spend tomorrow learning where we can put things and if weather is nice giving it a wash job. So get ready I will probably have a gazillion questions.

Congrats, you're lucky...we waited five months for delivery! (Ordered in August received in December) Check it over good, we have several issues, must return to factory. We are sure they didn't do a final inspection.

Congratulations on your new toy! And welcome to the B forum. You have many great adventures ahead. Deciding where to put things is part of the fun...and it leads to much colorful language when one person doesn't know where the other stored something.  Have a great and safe time on the road.

We had a lot of fun yesterday. I think DW finally decided to go with a maroon and gray for colors. Maroon and gray are the our son's alma mater's colors. I spent time learning about water & electrical systems and such and trying to envision where certain items would go as well as at just what angle my head should be when sleeping. Hope to get away for a weekend around Easter as neither of us have any time before then. Tough being an RVer and still having to work. BTW our new "baby" is named Artie. Chose that to honor my favorite great uncle. WTM

Congrats. We are still in love with our relatively new 2007 210P. Purchased new and have found many many uses for this second vehicle! Not retired quite yet at 56 but have still put this machine through its paces over 33,000 miles ranging from a few continental cross countries to camping out in hospital parking lots for grandbaby watch to catching up with our sons college lacrosse team at away games. You will learn how to use the equipment better with your owners manual just getting out and using it on a few short outings to start.
Lessons learned. 1) After some use, consolidate your punch list of defects and questions and get to the dealer early in your warranty period and get em fixed. Roadtrek disowns you pretty quick after warranty runs out on stuff they are responsible for. 2) That being said, the Roadtrek website has alot of good info on it. I have used their service email address to ask specific questions and they usually respond quickly with the right info however you always have to go through a dealer/store for parts etc. 3) This forum has been a great place to compare notes with other owners and find out whats up with service related issues. Lots of archive. Recent one that comes to mind is the cracking waste hose and owner inputs on better alternative solutions to that issue.4)Read the manual, especially all the bold print cautions, warnings, and notes.
Good luck, happy trails, drive safe!

And if you don't have the correct owner's manual (I didn't), you can download that from RT website.
